Adding New Rope To A 24" Extension Ladder. Re-rope a ladder. How to repair a ladder.

What happens here

Starting from the bottom rung where the rope is attached, begin threading the rope up through the ladder's rungs. Pass the rope in between the rungs, alternating sides as you move upwards. This creates a zig-zag pattern along the length of the ladder. Ensure the rope runs smoothly and doesn't get tangled.

Goal: Thread the rope through the main body of the ladder.

What they say

Hide

And you have no knots. Now you're going to take this rope and you're going to feed it up in between your rungs just like this. I'm going to keep going all the way up through. I'll lay my ladder down.
