Confer Plastics 7200 Roll Guard fits Above-Ground Pool Heights from 48" to 56" A Frame Safety Ladder for Above Ground Outdoor Patio Swimming Pool Platform Ladder with Step Barrier Warm Grey

We picked up this Confer Plastics 7200 Roll-Guard A-frame safety ladder for our Intex 18' x 52" above-ground pool, and after two weeks it's been a solid addition. The barrier/roll-guard feature is the main reason we chose it — being able to lift and lock the outer steps to keep kids out when the pool isn't in use gives real peace of mind. Assembly Be honest with yourself going in: this one is a little tough to assemble. There are a fair number of parts and hardware, and lining everything up takes patience — a couple of the connections needed some firm pressure to seat properly. It's doable solo but goes much smoother with a second person and a little time. Once it's together, though, it feels well-built and the heavy-duty plastic is clearly made to last outdoors. Stability Here's our honest experience: the ladder is designed to be secured/anchored to the pool, but we chose not to attach it directly to avoid the risk of putting a hole in the liner. With that tradeoff, it's still pretty sturdy and holds weight confidently, but it does have a little wobble side to side since it isn't anchored. Nothing alarming — it's safe and stable to climb — just be aware that if you skip securing it like we did, you'll trade a bit of rigidity for protecting your liner. If you don't mind anchoring it, it would likely be rock-solid. Use So Far The steps are wide and comfortable underfoot, and the roll-guard barrier rolls up and locks easily once you get the hang of it. Getting in and out of a 52"-tall pool is much safer and easier with this than the lightweight ladder that came with the pool. Honest Notes Assembly takes patience — set aside time and ideally grab a helper. A little wobbly if you choose not to anchor it (our decision, to protect the liner); secure it and that likely goes away. Two weeks in, durability looks great so far; I'll update if anything changes. Bottom Line A well-made, safety-focused A-frame ladder that's worth the assembly hassle. The roll-guard barrier is great for families, and even unanchored it's sturdy enough for confident daily use. Recommended for above-ground pool owners who want a real step up from the basic included ladder.

Intex 16' x 48" Ultra Frame .. This is a great ladder it's real beefy. Took about About 2 hrs to assemble. Couldn't find my rubber mallet bought new one for $10 ... also picked up two 41" black rubber bungee cords from Lowes for $6 Instructions were very clear, 4 steps to full assembly ..Step 5 is placing & securing ladder in pool. Only 2 issues 4 me .. First.. During assembly on the top of the Outside Right Rail (OR).. The pre-punched hole for the screw that locks the ladder bridge into place was not centered and would not allow the screw to line up with nut & catch threads. I used a small rat tail file to wallow out hole in the 10-11 o'clock position so bolt threads would catch and secure... left side was spot on. Second After placing the ladder into pool & filling with water ..Instructions call for mounting small plastic stabilizer rails on both sides of ladder. These stabilizer rails are secured by drilling a hole on each side of the ladder into the top rail of my pool & screwing them down. I did not see the need or benefit of drilling holes into my pool top rail and at the same time putting 2 holes in my liner that covers the top rail. The instructions state 'Be careful not to damage the pool wall or liner.' There's no way to mount the stabilizer rails without putting holes in the liner as well as the the top rail. ..I also might want to move the ladder.. The stabilizer rails in my opinion are to secure the ladder to the pool & keep it from tipping over from wild human use, you can tip the ladder without a stabilizer on it but your gonna have to really rock it a bit (The filling with water adds stability & really makes it heavy to move around) . The stabilizer rails also keep it close to the inside wall of the pool & keep little ones from trying to swim behind the ladder. What shall we do..what shall we do.. I don't want holes in my top rail or my liner & I might want to move my ladder. Introducing ...Bungee Cord Stabilizers ...Stronger, Easier and Faster to install (No Drilling holes in top rail) Or (drilling holes through liner.) B4 purchase. I read a review of same problem & realized this prob might come up with the Intex 48" Ultra Frame & it did. That's why I picked up the Bungee Cords the other review stated this was a good fix and better than the plastic stabilizers. I have to agree.! Bungee Cords make the ladder movable if should want to move it and you don't have to drill holes in the top rail & liner which just doesn't make sense to me. (4 my pool anyway) The thick black rubber bungee cords allow for wrapping with tension & pull the ladder to the side of the pool super tight against the top rail. Securing 1 side at a time & using only 1 of the S hooks on each the bungees. I thread the hook-less end of each bungee through the nice perfect holes located on each side of the ladder (pool side) just above the top step. Stretching each Bungee on each side going over the pool top rail and securing each one to the pool frame support pole that is located on each side of the ladder wrapping once around the pole for tension and securing the hook-less end of Bungee to the S hook on the opposite end. Using only 1 S hook makes a nice clean connect just under the (T) of top rail on the outside of the support pole. Perfect..! The bungees on each side pull against each other while pulling it super tight against the top rail. I have absolutely no wobble even when standing on top deck and howling at the moon. The ladder is much wider than the stock Intex ..which is not usable & dangerous Steps feel good & wide 18'' vs 13'' I'm still trying to fig who might get through the 13'' hand rails on the stock intex.. "It was like.. This is not going to happen, someone might die doing this. We all just sat around the table and looked at the stock intex .. U got 2 B kidding.. It was that bad. We could not use our pool until this ladder arrived... So I ordered the ladder.. Super fast free shipping, I ordered on night of May 24 arrived that Fri the 27 at noon across the country and at my door in 2 days free.! Amazon showed it taking a week.. but No it was moving and moving fast.! Big Box was in perfect condition ..well packed.. all parts are in sealed plastic bag and includes a key lock to lock the roll-guard, which is Just awesome..! roll-guard works like a charm..! Nice touch..! Helps Keep it kiddie safe .. Lots of R&D went into this ladder .. Much better beefy & stronger than I expected.! Even with the 2 issues I mention ..the bolt hole out of line just a bit.. and the stabilizer rails mounting issue.. I still think this is the best ladder on the market at this time for above ground pools without a deck.! My Ladder is now safe, stable & wobble free.! . Pool party tested and passed - handles small, med, large and ex-large humans.. no Prob..! I hope this review helps.. Its a great ladder.. Buy it you won't be sorry.. It's also made in the USA.! 5 stars all the way.!

I wanted to have a ladder that was safer and easier to use. Have only had the ladder for a week. The quality is good, I can't review how good it would be after being out in the sun all summer. I like that it has a roll top to secure the ladder when not in use. I also like the platform at top to stand on to turn around to go down the next side. The only difficulty was putting it together. Its definitely a 2 person job and maybe even a 3 person job. You also need some tools, its not a snap together job. It didnt take long to set up, just cumbersome with the size of the piece.

Oh my gosh... I can not express enough how much we love our new ladder. It's such an upgrade from the original ladder that came with the pool. This one is so sturdy and so "climber friendly". The steps are nice and wide, a comfort on your feet. Feels very safe and looks great too! Love the roll down security feature. Comes in. Handy when we're away. BTW: So easy to out together! Thank you thank you

Love this pool ladder. It replaced the shaky ladder we had and I'm very happy we ordered this. It was very easy to put together. I particularly like its stability and it's larger platform. The price was also fantastic I did a lot of research before I bought this.

Needed to replace above ground pool ladder & was looking for one that would be extremely sturdy that would withstand 3 young grandchildren's usage. After much research I chose this ladder the "Rollquard" A-Frame Ladder/Model #7200. I couldn't be more pleased with my selection of this ladder. Not only did my purchase arrive earlier than stated delivery date but the ladder itself is top-notch. The material that the ladder is constructed from is extremely sturdy (not flimsy plastic that bends under weight). The assembly instructions are easy to follow & understand. The assembly of the ladder doesn't require a workshop of tools. The only tools needed: Rubber Mallet, cordless drill w/ Phillips driver, 5/16" drill bit, Phillips screwdriver, Pliers & a garden hose. A second set of hands is also helpful! I found that by putting all the ladder parts (including the necessary hardware) together in the step by step assembly instructions was helpful. Total Ladder assembly time: approximately-1 1/2 hrs. Once this ladder is assembled it's extremely sturdy. After the ladder is put in & over the pool wall it has stabilizer rails that you anchor/attach to the upper pool railing that will prevent the ladder from rocking side to side or tipping over. It also increases the sturdiness & safety of the ladder. Another safety feature of the ladder is the rollquard that when closed covers the ladder steps on the outside of the pool, preventing access to climb ladder steps. Includes a padlock w/keys to use for extra safety. The only problem I encountered when putting the ladder into the pool: my inner pool floor is dug out & extends to 5 1/2' in the center. So my inside pool floor was deeper than the outside which caused the ladder to lean forward in the pool. I corrected this by digging out the needed depth on the outside of the pool wall to match the inside pool depth. Once the ladder was installed & the stabilizer bars anchored to the upper pool railing there is no movement, rocking or tipping of the ladder. The ladder steps & deck are rated to withhold up 300#. Upon testing the ladder steps & deck with an adult close to the 300# weight, I didn't notice any bending or giving of the steps/deck or movement of the ladder. As a pool owner for over 40 years this is the best above ground pool ladder I have ever seen. Also as a grandparent of 3 young grandchildren, the sturdiness of the ladder & the safety feature of the locking rollquard to prevent access to the ladder steps helps ensure the safety/well-being of my "Grand-littles"! I'm looking forward to a fun & safe swimming summer with them. I highly recommend this pool ladder for its sturdy quality materials, easy assembly/installation and safety measures.

This ladder is amazing. It does exactly what we needed it to do. Holds weight. Evenly stays tight in the pool and the slide protection to cover the steps is perfect a little stiff, but that’s good. Keeps my family safe.

Reading the reviews, I thought this would be a great upgrade for our above-ground pool. Unfortunately, while the ladder looks sturdy and substantial, it has been extremely disappointing from the very first use. The ladder was delivered August 3. We filled it completely with water as instructed and rocked it back and forth to make sure both sides were filled properly. As soon as we started using it, the instability was noticeable. I understand that we cannot use the side stabilizers because we have an Intex Ultra Frame pool with soft sides, and I expected there might be some additional movement because of that. However, this is far beyond a slight wiggle. Our original Intex ladder honestly felt sturdier. Even the kids have commented on how unstable this one feels and are nervous using it. More concerning are the steps themselves. From the very first use, the steps noticeably bent and folded inward when stepped on under normal use. The photos show how much the step flexes with weight on it. That has nothing to do with the side stabilizers and makes me seriously question the safety and durability of this ladder. The overall construction is also disappointing for the price. Several areas of the plastic already look stressed, rough, or cracked despite the ladder essentially being brand new. For nearly $260, I expected something significantly sturdier and better made. I bought this specifically because I thought it would be a safer, more stable upgrade from the ladder that came with our pool, but instead everyone feels less comfortable using it. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this ladder and will be returning it.

très solide , extrêmement facile a monté, passe bien au dessus des paroi d une piscine complètement hors terre voir photo en attache. c est la meilleure échelle que j ai vu et eu. Je recommande a tout le monde sans hésiter.

An excellent product! It was easy to assemble and is very sturdy. The roller guard is a great feature for child safety. recommended.

By far one of the best ladders we've found for our above ground pool. Our pool is 48 inches deep and this ladder could easily accommodate another 10 inches of depth. I have arthritis and fibromyalgia, I can easily climb this ladder and it's sturdy enough for me to "rest" halfway up and down without fear of the ladder shifting or collapsing. So much nicer than the original ladder that came with our pool or the ladder we purchased made of 'thinner' materials.

This ladder works great, and is very sturdy and well made. My local pool store sells this ladder for $450 plus tax, so it’s frustrating that it’s so over priced on Amazon. But with everything being out of stock this year I didn’t have a choice. Other than that, great ladder

Great product easy to assemble
