Intex Steel Frame Above Ground Pool Ladder for 48" Walls — 300 lb Capacity, Non-Slip Composite Steps

The Intex Steel Frame Above Ground Pool Entry/Exit Ladder is a sturdy, 48-inch wall-height ladder designed to give safe, slip-resistant access to above-ground pools (pool sold separately).

This ladder fits pools with walls up to 48 inches high and is engineered for frequent in-and-out use. Its coated steel frame resists corrosion, while high-impact composite steps provide a stable, non-slip surface. The ladder’s reinforced top brace and spring-pin leg connections add stability so families can feel confident using it season after season.

How does this ladder improve getting in and out of a 48" wall pool?

The ladder places a wide, solid platform at the pool edge and stepped rungs below to create safer transitions between deck and water. High-impact composite treads reduce slipping, and the coated steel frame resists bending under normal use. Together these features minimize wobble and provide a confident grip for users.

• High-impact composite steps with non-slip surface
• Coated steel frame for rigidity and corrosion resistance
• 300-pound weight capacity to support most users
