Prime Design ErgoRack Installed in CT

The next-generation Prime Design ErgoRack® is engineered to enhance worker safety, increase productivity, and reduce the risk of injury. Introduced in 1992, the ErgoRack revolutionized ladder handling by eliminating the need to climb onto tires or bumpers when loading or unloading ladders.

Product Features:

• Ergonomic Ladder Deployment
  Designed for smooth, controlled ladder movement that reduces physical strain and allows ladders to be deployed or stowed in seconds.

• Hex Driveshaft
  A simplified hex driveshaft with a ratcheting wrench and removable handle enables operation from either side of the vehicle—street side or curb side.

• Rotation-With-Slide Functionality
  This updated design allows the rack to drop further down, improving ladder access across a range of vehicle roof heights.

• Hydraulically Dampened Descent
  Uses aircraft-grade hydraulic fluid, stable across a wide temperature range, to slow the descent of heavier ladders safely and reliably.

• 180° Rotating Driveshaft
  The rear driveshaft rotates during installation, allowing easy adaptation across different vehicle applications for improved compatibility.

• Reduced Weight Design
  The new hex driveshaft reduces system weight by over 10 lbs. per rotation, especially valuable on high-roof vehicles.

• Enhanced Locking Provisions
  Offers better reach-up heights and secure locking at the slide handle ends for easier, ergonomic locking and unlocking.

• Improved Mirror Clearance
  The standard rotation slide design avoids interference with side mirrors during ladder removal or deployment.
