ABSTRACT:
Systems for stabilizing ladders are provided. A representative system incorporates a ladder stabilizing assembly that includes a mount, a frame and a spike. The mount is configured to attach to a ladder. The frame extends from the mount and is movable between a stowed position, in which the frame is located adjacent the ladder, and an un-stowed position, in which the frame extends outwardly from the ladder. The spike extends from the frame and is operative to be driven into the ground such that, when the frame is in the un-stowed position and the spike is driven into the ground, the ladder stabilizing assembly provides support to the ladder.
