Prospeed ladder problem

Got my Prospeed ladder fitted but have a problem, the top keeps popping off the top of the door, its been fitted 3 times now and each time it has popped of the top of the door a few hours later.

Has anyone here seen this and if so, how did you fix it.

No mine sits fine Dale, would suggest that the shape of the frame of the ladder is not quite right Confused

Did you fit initially of the boys at Prospeed?

Yep, sounds like it is the wrong shape, so looks like you need a replacement.

Prospeed have a good reputation when it comes to customer service and it sounds like you are going to test that from over-the-water.

Prospeed fitted it twice and I have fitted it once, I'm back home now so taking it back to Prospeed to sort out is out of the question. I need to sort this out as it is now I have to tie it on at the top of it flops about. Yesterday I refitted it and all was well and about an hour later I went out to look at it and it had popped off again.

I want you to send it to my wife's email address but I not sure what one she uses for her paypal so I will ask her tonight when she gets in from work.

It sounds like it needs bending slightly to fit the shape if the door?

Not sure you'll be able to though it's tough stuff, maybe just the flat plate though, bend it downward so it hooks under the door top?

--------- Snip bend it downward so it hooks under the door top? ----------------


Thats what it looks like I need to do but then I think it might be too loose if I bed it.


I thank I'll call Ben on Monday and see what he suggests.


Its a shame because everything else is 110%

Sounds the right thing to do Dale, if the Prospeed boys had 2 goes, it makes me think something is out, they'll do what they can to help I'm sure Thumbs Up

Hi Dale,

Just spotted this thread, sorry that you are experiencing problems. We have come across a slight manufacturing issue with the latest batch of ladders, yours is one of those, we are fixing the problem and manufacturing a new batch. As soon as a replacement ladder is ready we will ship one to you. Sorry for the inconvenience, I will be in touch.

Regards,
Ben
