JIF Marine DJX5-W 5-Step Retractable Sliding Dock Ladder, 60 Inch Aluminum, 4 Inch Wide Steps, 750 lb Capacity

The JIF Marine DJX5-W is a 5-step retractable sliding dock ladder built for docks and waterfronts where deeper water or a lower platform calls for extra reach. At a full 60 inch height, it offers five extra-wide 4 inch non-slip steps spaced 12 inches apart, giving climbers a stable, comfortable path in and out of the water. The retractable lift-up design lets the ladder slide up above the waterline when not in use, which reduces algae buildup on the steps and cuts down on wear from constant water contact.

Construction is anodized aluminum, chosen for its resistance to corrosion in saltwater and freshwater marine environments alike. A double ring locking system holds the ladder securely in the extended position during use, adding stability and safety while climbing. The ladder is rated for a 750 pound load capacity, making it suitable for a range of users. Overall product dimensions are 20 inches wide by 60 inches high, and the finish is silver aluminum. This is the wide-step version of the ladder, featuring 4 inch steps for a broader, more stable foothold than narrower-step designs.
