ladder install

[quazarman2001]

I have a sprinter 328rls tt which is a whopping 37' long and i would like to install a ladder to access the top. Any suggestions where to get one and has anyone else installed themselves?

I've asked the same question before. I've got a 30RKS with no ladder.

The answer is if there isn't a ladder from the factory, then you can't walk on the roof and won't have the support in the rear wall to add one.

I’d buy either a folding/collapsing ladder and store it in your basement pass through. If you must get on the roof make sure you distribute your weight with some heavy duty 3-4” styrofoam or some plywood with carpet glued to the underside. This prevents damage to the roof.

Collapse into a thin stick for storage.

Thank you all for your responses. I greatly appreciate the info. I think I am going to look more into the folding ladder a little more. For me that seems the way to go

What Tbos said above. Or keep moving the ladder around.

I bought a fold-up scaffold, but haven't tried it yet.

I used a long (extendable) broomstick with a brush. The handle is actually one I bought for painting high walls. I would do what I could from a spot and then move the ladder. For repairs you can use what I suggested previously or reach from the sides.
