I live on the 3rd floor of an apartment complex with a balcony. Would this ladder hook on the balcony wrought iron gate?

I don't think it would work as you need a solid surface such as a wall to put the hook part of the ladder against in order for it to function safely, and the wrought iron gate is probably not solid.

No, I don't think so. Not unless you get it rigged by a professional to ensure it meets the same structure and strenght requirements that a wall would provide - you would not want it to be a safey hazard. Also, it's not long enough to be use from the 3rd floor.

The hooks seem to work on my balcony railings. However, what doesn't work is trying to climb the ladder that is swinging in space, since my balcony protrudes out from the wall. However, I'm going to test and see if the ladder will work with someone holding it at the bottom. (Since I live on a busy street and think in a fire emergency I can probably expect there to be somebody around who would respond to my calls for help to hold the ladder.)

i have the same set up as the picture.. if you have a thinner rod to place the mount, you will need to put something thicker to ensure that the mount will hold on your balcony rod.

I don't think so. Mine is attached to top rung of extension ladder. Step ladders have flat platform on top

If your deck railing is strong enough, the x-it ladder will have no issues. But give it a try from the ground to know for sure!

I bought it to put on my 3 rd floor balcony and found out it had to be in groin so that the metal stakes would hold it up! Still new! I don't know if I will ever use it! Bought the wrong thing!

Yes but it it can also be anchored to your pool. It is so nice to have a ladder that doesn't move every time you touch it. Great ladder, great addition.

Possibly. You'll need to install a piece of wood or something to attach the one end of the gate too (metal banister side). The directions for this gate are terrible!! I would suggest finding a gate that is tension mounted instead if possible.

It's a pressure gate, so no. It wouldn't be safe. You need a gate specifically for the top of stairs which is connected to the post or wall.

This gate is very versatile and would fit an entrance within the 3ft 6 inches range to 3ft 8 inches. I had mine mounted on the first step of my staircase and not at the base. However this gate can be adjusted well to suit any length you want to achieve. I'm not too handy so I got a handy man to do it for me.

No. It must slide over the side rails of an extension ladder. Any other modification could be potentially dangerous.

Yes it will work fine but you have to mount the iron part on a piece of 2" angle when attaching to the door. This unit will provide plenty of holding power.

I didn't use it on that style ladder however according to the instructions/directions it will.

This gate is not appropriate for top of stairs. I purchased a different gate for my stairs.

Yes it does but I also recommend putting a pad under the bottom of the ladder. Amazon recommended that.

Sure is. We tied to the ladder handles. Also bought a anchor it worked well

Yes. You may have to attach the railings to the deck, but that shouldn't be too big of a problem. I actually reversed my steps. The ladder is inside the pool and the steps are outside. We found it safer.

I tend to think this may not work. The ladders are filled with water to stabilize them, so if one were to "cut" the ladder, it wouldn't be strong on the 36" side.
