Installation Steps (continued)
For your safety, it is very important that all of the installation directions and safety precautions
are understood and followed. If, after reviewing these directions, either you or the professional
installer is not fully comfortable with the installation process, please visit our website
www.wernerfireescapeladder.com to view the installation video or contact us at the phone number
shown on the back cover.
General Installation Requirements –
IMPORTANT: Studs must be 16" center-to-center for proper installation. Proper placement of the
ladder requires installing the metal pan beneath the window approximately 5 to 6 inches from the
bottom of the window opening (the window sill), between the window apron and baseboard moldings
(see picture associated with Step 1 on page 6.) This placement is ideal to ensure an acceptable
distance to the top-most rung upon deployment of the ladder.
Refer to the diagram below and note that it is preferable to have the metal pan centered (horizontally)
beneath the window opening. If the unit cannot be centered under the window opening, the ladder
may be installed to either side as long as it is approximately 5 to 6 inches beneath the window
opening and not outside the footprint of the window above.
A finished wall space of 9-1/2" (h) x 16-1/2" (w) for a 2 story or 12" (h) x 16-1/2" (w) for a 3 story is
necessary to install the ladder. For your convenience, the enclosed Installation Template includes a
guide you can place on the wall to ensure you have the needed space. If you do not have the
necessary wall space, you may notch out part of the molding (either window apron and/or baseboard)
to make room for the proper installation. To view the installation video, please visit
