Ladder safety device

Abstract

A ladder safety device is usable for holding and stabilizing a ladder in a safe and stable manner while being used, by way of securing a ladder relative to continuous horizontal guttering at the edge of a building. The device locks to the gutter by way of locking jaws and is secured to the side rail of a ladder by way of an adjustable locking bar—said locking bar being adjustable in lateral and normal directions. The jaws interact by an over-center relationship with each other. In an alternate embodiment, a trigger and locking mechanism secures the jaws in a closed position while in use.
