Has to be the Rojak Stopper for me, used them for the best part of 30 years tried using them on the most slippy surfaces I could find over the years and yet to find anything that it fails on

That doesn’t look that bad tbh. Something I could fit in the car.

Ive seen a few people rave about these. They look quite good.

I have a couple of them a short one and a long one, the long one is good for ladders that have a wide or flared base (multi function step ladders) both of them have seen a lot of work over the best part of 30 years and I'm still trying to find something that they won't stop a ladder slipping on.
They are also good for stopping stuff rolling or sliding around in the back of the car or van

I won't be one, I've looked at them many times and don't think they come near the Rojak's capabilities especially on wet surfaces, I also don't like the spikes in the base too much chance of marking a customers decking or stone patio

Just make sure they know to foot the ladder by standing on the bottom rung of the ladder and they can walk off if they get a phone call rather than texting

Ordered a Rojack. Very impressed and managed to get one half price.

Was this a one off or did you find some place running an offer? Interested in one myself and would jump at any half price deal.

Edit: Just noticed Rojak selling seconds of the 18" version for £19.66, which is just as well considering they're asking £12 for delivery to NI ?

Have to ask the question, are these things acceptable by the HSE as a means of footing a ladder, just thinking of any accident at work insurance claim you may try to make if your ladder slips and you fall off?

Only mention of passing any tests: "We have now branched out into designing safe access steps and ladders in cooperation with various UK ladder manufacturers including our new Safe Ladder which passes the Loughborough Stability Test" Which is Rojak's sponsored research by Loughborough University for its own trade association.

No mention of HSE approval or recommendation: https://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg455.pdf shows tying to the structure only, or an effective stability device, can't get to the bottom of if the Rojak system is deemed by the HSE to be one.
