ABSTRACT:
A ladder tie strap is wrapped around adjacent rungs of upper and lower ladder sections in an extension ladder to prevent the upper ladder section from accidentally retracting relative to the lower ladder section. A fair of tie straps may also be secured to the upper end of the ladder and fastened to a ladder support structure to stabilize the ladder against lateral movement. The structure may be a wall or a wire, and when a wire the straps are wrapped around the wire and around the ladder rung or ladder side members.
