Ladder Stand-Offs

[fsrmike]

Does anyone know who made the ladder for my fifth wheel in 2015? I would like to add a couple stand-offs to the ladder to make it more secure, but all I can find are the four-bolt style. I would like to match the existing stand-offs which are two bolt style.

I'm thinking that it was most likely Atwood, which was absorbed by Dometic in 2017. Sadly, a quick search of Dometic's site doesn't list any ladders.

Or Stromberg Carlson. They were one of the biggest suppliers.

Be careful about adding standoffs. Not sure there will be backer boards behind the entire length of the ladder. May not have much to screw them to.

How about something like this? You could connect the bottom to the bumper and top to the existing ladder which should provide for a lot more strength (maybe) and not too mention it would keep the first step from being so high up. In fact, I think I may consider something like this for mine.

Thanks for the reply's, I have searched the internet and can't find any 2 bolt stand-offs. The ladder is bowing inward in the middle and I wanted to add support. Next time I'm in the area of my Jayco dealer, I will stop and ask them about adding support and if they can get a 2 bolt stand-offs.
