Default Ladder safety on decks...

No inspections today so thought I would build somthing I have been thinking about for a while. This can be inserted into the space between two deck boards and will prevent the ladder from kicking out at the bottom. Should work well on slippery deck surfaces and during the winter weather.

And the deck is always parallel to the ladder set up? Just curious.
Nice little rig though.

And alike this photo, the screws would be inbetween the boards.
