Werner Ladder Accessories | Level-EZE Auto Leveler for Werner Ladders

When using a Werner extension ladder, proper setup on stable, level ground is critical. With the Level-EZE automatic leveler installed, the ladder self-levels on uneven terrain — compensating for up to 9.5 inches of grade — the moment as little as 9 lbs of weight is applied. Both legs adjust simultaneously via an aluminum rod and steel gear system in 3/16-inch increments, so no manual adjustment is needed. Always ensure the leveler is inspected before use, particularly in icy or cold conditions, and follow all manufacturer guidelines for angle and placement.

Level-EZE automatic ladder levelers are compatible with aluminum and fiberglass straight, extension, combination, stepladder, and platform ladders. They support ladders up to Type 1AA with a 375 lb duty rating. Factory installation is available from major manufacturers including Werner, Louisville, Bauer, and Little Giant.

When the ladder is set down on any surface, the Level-EZE automatically locks in place as little as 9 lbs of weight is applied. Both legs are connected by an aluminum rod that works in tandem, adjusting in 3/16-inch increments via steel gears to compensate for up to 9.5 inches of uneven terrain — all without any manual adjustment from the user.

No. When properly installed per the provided instructions — including cutting the bottom rung as recommended by Underwriters Laboratories — the Level-EZE does not affect the ladder's duty rating or manufacturer warranty. This is acknowledged by Werner and most other major ladder manufacturers who offer it as a factory-installed option.

Yes. The Level-EZE is the only automatic ladder leveler that meets all ANSI standards for portable extension ladders. It has been tested by Underwriters Laboratories at four times the ladder load rating without a single failure. OSHA states that 100% of ladder accidents are preventable with proper training and equipment, and Level-EZE directly supports that goal.

Installation takes approximately 25 minutes and can be completed by the owner using the provided instructions and YouTube video tutorials. Field installation is also available through ladder and tool distributors for a small fee, and factory installation is offered directly by major ladder manufacturers including Werner, Louisville, and Bauer.

The Level-EZE adds only approximately 4 to 5 lbs to the ladder, making it significantly lighter than manual levelers which typically weigh 8 to 11 lbs. Beyond weight savings, it improves work efficiency by 11% per ladder move by eliminating manual leveling steps — both hands stay on the ladder and both feet stay on the ground, removing operator error entirely. It has also passed 90,000+ life cycle tests with zero failures, meaning it is built to outlast the ladder itself.
