What Is An Outboard Ladder?

The outboard ladder is a movable escalator installed on the sides of the ship for the occupants to get on and off the ship. These ladders are usually made of wood or metal and have the following basic construction:

Stairs and steps: The main part of an outboard ladder used for walking.

Platform: Platform for boarding and disembarkation.

Railings: to ensure the safety of the occupants.

Elevator device: used to lift or lower the outboard ladder.

The outboard ladder is lifted when the ship is docked, folded and stored at the deck side, and lowered and suspended on the side when in use. These ladders are commonly used on passenger ships and other large and medium sized ships.
