Pros
Pro Easy to climb down
The First Alert features slip-resistant, epoxy-coated rungs, steel rung stabilizers, and Dupont Cordura nylon strapping. In addition, its rungs lie flat against the wall of the building you're exiting, helping you to keep your balance as you climb down. All of these elements of the ladder's design help to ensure a safe descent.
Pro Rungs are less likely to cause damage to property than those of other ladders
Many fire escape ladders on the market comprise sharp metal rungs that can easily cause damage to the wall they're hung against. The rubber feet of the First Alert, however, are less likely to damage property to the same extent, if even at all.
