Every year our Beach Access stairs would be swept away by Lake Eries November storms. We needed something that could be taken up and kept from harm's way. Alumidock/metallic ladder was the solution. a call was made to Patrick and Tom and Chuck came and made the measurements with a 4 week turnaround. Chuck, Tom and Josh just left and within 2 1/2 -3 hours we have a 20 foot beautiful set of stairs leading to the sea wall with a shorter ladder to get to terra firma- can't recommend this company enough- trust them- they'll fix your problem!
