Would this ladder fit on the 2-foot side of our above ground pool (Kayak) or are the two bases not in line with each other?

I don't think this slide is designed for above ground pools. And 2' is not enough room.

No. The ladder installation may not be in front of a pier / piling. I would suggest an additional top brace such that the ladder attaches to both the top face and side of the dock. The side brace may need a spacer to account for deck overhang.

I would say yes, if it hangs on the side without it setting on the bottom it will push against the pool walls. If you don't care about that than it's a good ladder, not the best quality but good enough.

I just measured mine and got 59" outside and 58" inside to the top of the platform. I have a 4 ft pool and the platform is about a foot above the pool edge, 6" if you count the support pieces. I used to have "steps" into the pool and the ladder looks like you could cut some of the steps off. I don't think it's a good idea to plant your pool in the ground. Think about what your winter weather would do to it.

Yes it should. If its bolted to an above ground pool, it's a great ladder, but a little steep. If its used for an intex style pool, it's a little wobbly!

The way I determined the correct one to purchase was to measure from the top of my dock where i would bolt the unit on, to the bottom of surface under the water at low tide. I needed the four step ladder, which worked out well. Hope this helps!

it does not have to touch the ground. i have mine mounted on the front of a 24' pontoon boat and it works great. i am 6'2" 255# and the ladder feels solid under me. however a cross brace would be nice.

The ladder's width is tapered. Mine measures 21" wide at the base, 16" at the top step (platform), and 13.25" at the very top.

I have a 21ft and there was some overlap so it should work. I would suggest getting the styrofoam pool coves as we'll.

Our deck is flush with the top of our pool. We had to modify and cut some material off the legs so that the seat sits on top and bridges the deck and pool. We did not cut off more than 3 inches and the legs that go into the pool are adjustable, so this model would likely work for you.

Yes, ideally. Before the ladder is put in the pool it is to be filled with sand to resist floating. The shelf is not designed to rest on the pool edge but be positioned above; the feet on the front edge if attached to a deck outside the pool then the steps do not have to rest on the pool floor. If the feet on attached to the pool top, then the steps do not have to touch the pool floor if your pool is deep enough.

I haven't used it yet, so i cant say for sure. But there is another one on amazon same ladder same price but it includes the protective mat(at time of this posting) So I'm going to give it a try. I find it hard to believe the ladder is designed to support up to 300# of weight only if it's supported by a pool. That would be silly especially considering i hear a lot of people saying it's to tall for their pools even when adjusted(so it wouldnt be putting the weight on the side of the pool anyway if it cant even touch the edge)We will see.

Level the ground two feet or more wider than the pool dimensions or you will have to dig out the ground where the supports go. More is better than less.

Why does the height of the deck matter? Are you wanting to use this to get up to the deck? This is a pool ladder in our 54 inch deep pool. We love it as a pool ladder; much better than our old one.

That is the same way for my pool. I cut and stacked two treated 2" x 6" boards (one set for each arm) to macth the two mounting arms on the steps and attached the boards to the wood deck and then attched the arms to the boards. I have had no problems, works great, very stable.

Yes it should. My pool is the same and these steps are far better than what I expected. Strong sturdy and easy to assemble.

The ladder goes all the way to the bottom. Did not use the fins.there are better ladders out there would look around for better one.
