ABSTRACT:
The apparatus includes mounting brackets which are secured to the roof of a vehicle. Two elongated tubes are mounted parallel to each other extending lengthwise above the roof on the mounting brackets. An elongated support is slidably located in each tube. The supports each comprise a front section pivotally coupled to a rear section with the legs of the ladder pivotally coupled to the rear sections. The ladder and the supports cooperatively slide between a storage position and an operating position. In the storage position the supports are located substantially in the elongated tubes and the ladder is located on the mounting brackets. In the operating position, the supports are located substantially out of the tubes rearward of the vehicle with the front sections supported by the tubes and the rear sections moved and locked to a vertical position with their lowered ends supported by the ground. The ladder then may be pivoted against a building, etc., rearward of the vehicle while supported by the rear sections.
