Why choose the OHS Ladder Loader? __________________________________________________ The OHS Ladder Loader allows the operator to load and unload a ladder from the roof of a high-roofed vehicle, quickly, easily and safely. Australian designed and built, our ladder loader aids in safety and significantly reduces the risk of a manual handling injury.

How does it work? __________________________________________________ The OHS Ladder Loader uses a combination of ergonomics, gas struts and structural grade materials, to provide a simple, one person, fast and very stable way of lifting your ladder.

Simply mount the ladder to the OHS Ladder Loader frame at ground level and with an easy lift and push action, your ladder is secured on the roof of your vehicle. Gas struts and dampers are used to assist for a smooth operation. A ladder strap and cable are included to securely lock your ladder in place.

Why is it safer? _____________________________________ In line with current Australian Work Health & Safety Regulations, the OHS Ladder Loader aids in reducing the risks involved in the manual handling of ladders, particularly when loading onto high-roofed vehicles. To meet the requirements of Duty of Care, if eliminating a risk is not possible, then that risk must be minimised.

The Rhino-Rack OHS Ladder Loader does just that!

The need for lifting and climbing on the roof of your vehicle to secure a ladder is eliminated with this system. Once your ladder is in place simply slide and lock the carriage into position on the roof. No heavy lifting is required for this easy, single person operation, minimising risk and ensuring safety for your most valuable asset!
