Over the years, dockside activities like boating and swimming have been rising in popularity. They are attracting more people, so dock owners need a way to make their facilities more accessible. One way to make such an improvement is to install easy climb ladders for the elderly and children. Below are some of the advantages of these purpose-built stairs.   Easier to Get into and out of the Water The standard dock ladder is almost completely vertical when installed. As you can imagine, such a configuration can make it uncomfortable--or even impossible--for an elderly person to use safely. Most easy climb dock ladders are built with a 35-degree angle. The incline makes getting into and out of the water a more fluid process. Elderly individuals will not have to strain themselves when accessing the dock, reducing the risk of accidents. Designed with People in Mind Many variants of easy climb ladders for the elderly are also designed with wider steps. Steps for Aqua-Stairs...
