JIF Marine DJX5 5-Step Retractable Sliding Dock Ladder, Aluminum, 60 Inch, 750 Pound Capacity
The JIF Marine DJX5 is a 5-step retractable sliding dock lift ladder built for deep-water docks and marine environments where extended reach and reliable footing matter. Standing 60 inches tall, it gives boaters and dock owners greater vertical reach than shorter ladders, making it a strong fit for taller docks or locations with fluctuating water levels. The lift-up design allows the ladder to retract above the waterline when not in use, helping protect it from constant water exposure and extending its service life.
Each of the five steps is 2 inches wide with a textured, non-slip surface for secure footing, and the steps are spaced 12 inches apart for a comfortable, consistent climb. A double ring locking system holds the ladder firmly in place during use, adding a layer of safety while boarding or exiting the water. The frame is built from anodized aluminum, which resists corrosion in saltwater and freshwater marine settings while keeping the ladder lightweight enough for routine sliding and retracting. The ladder measures 20 inches wide with a 14 inch handle depth and supports up to 750 pounds, making it suitable for both residential and commercial dock installations.
