Ladder "Straddler" Takes Weight Off Gutters, Eaves FARM HOME Miscellaneous 24-1-32 You can work on your roof, clean your gutters, or paint your eaves without doing damage to gutters or the roof edge using new Straddler ladder brackets.
The brackets slide onto the ladder side rails and tighten down with hand knobs. They arch over the edge of the roof to put the weight of the ladder directly on top of the roof. Rubber-bottomed pads adapt to any pitched roof and you can slide the brackets up and down the ladder as needed.
Inventor and manufacturer Robert Eric Jones says they're particularly good for installing or cleaning out gutters.
Straddler brackets are designed to fit most ladders. They sell for $84 a pair plus $5 S&H.
