ALL NEW Bott Ladder CLAMP
The next generation vehicle ladder securing system.
Co-engineered between workspace storage specialist The Bott Group and commercial vehicle accessory experts Van Guard Accessories Ltd, scheduled for release in Summer 2026.
Key Specifications & Innovative Features
Built entirely from the ground up, the system moves away from old-fashioned, tedious screw-down methods to focus heavily on speed and mechanical ergonomics:
- Triple-Start Thread System: Allows the clamp to engage and disengage up to three times faster than standard threads, drastically cutting down the number of manual turns needed to secure your ladder.
- One-Handed Operation: Patented spring-loaded ball bearings inside the clamp body maintain consistent upward tension. This allows you to easily place and secure the ladder with one hand while staying safe on the roof bar.
- Indexed Torque Handle: Features an integrated mechanism that provides an audible "clicking" feedback once the proper tightening threshold is met, preventing over-tightening or gear slipping.
- Integrated Anti-Theft Lock: Eliminates the hassle of using separate loose padlocks by embedding a secure, built-in lock directly into the handle architecture.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Fabricated from high-grade stainless steel and glass-reinforced nylon to remain lightweight while providing absolute resistance to harsh weather, rust, and road corrosion.
- 20G Crash Tested: Extensively life-cycle tested internally and certified to perform safely under extreme sudden vibration or impact pressure.
