POOL LADDERS & STEPS

Safely Enter & Exit Your Pool with Pool Steps, Ladders and Hand Rails

For most swimmers, the pool steps and pool ladder is the only way in and out of the pool. Of course, there are some who love to jump-in with a splash, but at some point, everyone will use the rail or ladder to get out of the water. With so much use by so many people, the importance of choosing the correct pool steps and ladder is high, and In The Swim is here to help you make the right ladder and step choices for your pool. Read on for more information on how to find the perfect pool ladder or step for your pool.

Inground Pool Ladders: Inground pools will have a surrounding deck, and there are many options for inground pool ladders like our 3-step inground ladder by SR Smith or the stylish Inter-Fab redesign of the basic pool ladder with their designer 3-tread ladder adds form and function in your pool. Take a look at Saftron ladders, made in high-density plastic, and six cool colors. At these low prices, anyone can afford our replacement pool ladders! New pool ladders and rails always freshen-up a pool, and make getting in and out of the water easier and safer.

Inground Pool Handrails: Upgrade the look of your inground pool with built-in stairs at the shallow end with new hand rails that come in many different styles like a 3 bend stair rail, or the cross-braced deck mounted pool rail, or the traditional-looking figure 4 grab rails. To add some style to your pool, look to the SR Smith Artisan hand and stair rails, and the modern Designer pool ladders and rails from Inter-Fab. In addition to shiny stainless steel pool hand rails, we also carry the Saftron line of ABS plastic pool ladders and rails, salt and dent resistant, very sturdy and stylish in six cool colors to match your pool deck and tile tones.

Inground Pool Steps: For inground pools without built-in steps, make a graceful entrance with the Curve Step System — the next best thing to shallow end pool stairs. These steps are constructed from a high-impact resin and provide easy access to pool users of all ages and size, using the sleek hand rails and wide, steady steps. This inground pool step also provides a safe and comfortable place to sit and relax in the water. Curved pool step has non-slip wide treads at a gradual grade into the pool water. Inground pool steps sit on the bottom of the pool with adjustable feet to level the step on slightly sloped floors.

Above Ground Pool Ladders: Above ground pools with decks are more like inground pools and have more options like our pool deck ladder or the heavy-duty in-pool ladder of the same style. Pool deck ladders attach to your pool deck and rest on the pool floor with adjustable rail height of 42" to 56" to fit most above ground pool decks. While most above ground pool ladders are made of a durable vinyl resin, you can count on In the Swim to have more options like our stainless steel above ground ladder that attaches to your deck, and rests on the floor.

Above Ground Pool Steps: Above ground pools without decks will require something similar to the Roll Guard A-Frame safety ladder. With an A-Frame ladder, one side rests on the pool’s bottom while the other set of steps sits on the ground outside your pool, providing a safe way in and out of your pool. There’s also the option of having a more elaborate entry system like Confer’s double pool entry system that essentially replaces ladders with steps, handrails and a wider threshold platform to give swimmers the most secure and stable way to enter and exit the pool.

In The Swim carries pool steps and pool ladders, along with pool step and ladder accessories, in a variety of sizes and styles for all types of pool applications all at great prices. In our parts department, you can also find inground pool ladder parts and parts for Vinyl Works above ground steps and ladders.
