Ladder?

[Haulin_Toys]

Have a new 2020 impact 29v and looking for recommendations for a ladder that I can mount right to the camper. Any suggestions?

With a toy hauler, a ladder won't go up on the back. The front cap doesn't look promising. I suggest and extending ladder; light and easily stored. I have a 12' but there are longer and shorter. I have a rear mount ladder on my camper but never use it and use the extending ladder; easier to use and safer.

If you want something you can shape, I purchased this fella a couple months ago and am happy with it.

As George pointed out toy haulers don't have ladders that I'm aware of. If you mount a ladder on the rear cargo door it would hit the ground when you open the door.

Mounting one to the side is not an option as it would make the trailer too wide, get caught on signs, tree limbs etc. and the sides are not reinforced to mount one. The front cap is hollow and therefore not reinforced to support mounting a ladder.

Often times toy haulers have a ladder mounted to the rear drivers side that is pivoted so it lays flatter against the sidewall. I’m suprised yours didn’t have it or have an option for it.

Actually, most newer Keystone 5th wheel toy haulers actually do have a folding ladder, typically mounted on the driver's side at the tail end of the trailer. They fold up tight against the trailer; by pulling a pin, they fold out about 4". We have that plus I also carry an extension ladder that allows me quick access to anywhere on the rig without getting up on the roof. Here's what we bought https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Shop arround for these; lots of lengths and prices. This is mostly for the picture.

No worries! Impossible to keep up with all the changes in the industry. In fact, I am constantly shocked at how knowledgeable and well informed the Site Team can be...you guys do an amazing job and it shows in the quality of responses in the threads!

Thanks from all of us "users"!

Could someone post a picture of the toy hauler side mount ladder? I would probably lose such a ladder due to incompetent driving/backing but I have owned toy haulers and never considered such a ladder! Wow.

I give Keystone credit for the placement. I would have expected them to mount it on the "blind side" where street signs, mail boxes, tree limbs, etc. could rip it off.
