Adding aftermarket ladder to 2012 Grey Wolf

[jbargerstock]

I purchased a 2012 Grey Wolf 27BHKS last year and was able to get a few things done before winter set in. Looking to add a ladder where one doesn't exist, but wanted to see if anyone could recommend one. It looks like they're normally mounted on the right side, but any help/guidance would be appreciated for a "newbie."

I would not bet my pay check but I think the manufacturer installs extra support behind the exterior wall and on the roof to support the ladder. If this is true you would need to know if your unit has the support to mount the ladder and where. They are handy to have as I have one on my current rig, but they are also a little dangerous due to the fact that they are straight up and down. I trust and extension ladder more than I do the factory mounted. I have taped pool noodles to the top of an extension ladder to lean against my rigs prior to having a factory installed one.

Unless the ladder was an option, there usually is no backers for a ladder.
Other than Toyhaulers, most RVs have the ladder on the back wall, not the side wall.
