One of the most common questions homeowners ask is, “What’s involved in adding a Rescue Ready ladder to my home?” Fortunately, the Rescue Ready installation process is simple, efficient, and handled entirely by trained professionals.
Whether you’re retrofitting an older home or adding extra safety to a newer build, Rescue Ready Columbus makes the experience easy from start to finish.
Step 1: In-Home Assessment
It all starts with a quick consultation. A certified Rescue Ready technician visits your home to evaluate which second-floor rooms are the best candidates for installation. During this visit, they’ll assess window sizes, wall construction, and accessibility to ensure everything is up to code and safe for install.
The technician will also explain options—like the standard ladder or one with a decorative cover—and answer any questions about safety features and appearance.
Step 2: Seamless Installation
Once the plan is in place, the installation itself is fast and non-invasive. The Rescue Ready ladder is securely anchored between wall studs beneath the window sill, tucked away behind a discreet cover that blends with your home’s interior. There’s no major construction or disruption to your home.
Installations are typically completed in a single visit, and most homeowners are surprised by how quick and tidy the process is.
Step 3: Final Walkthrough and Peace of Mind
After installation, your technician will walk you through how to use the ladder in the event of an emergency. You’ll see firsthand how easy it is to deploy—open the window, pull the cover, and drop the ladder. That’s it.
You’ll also receive documentation verifying that the unit meets ASTM safety standards and instructions for repainting the cover if you’d like to match your trim or walls.
