BRACKET TYPE: ---> "J" Brackets allow the ladder to be removed (ladder MUST extend past the loft) or ... ---> "L" Brackets --> mounts on top of the ladder. MUST be used if the ladder DOES NOT extend past the loft edge, or ... --->"C" Brackets NOT easily removable. Good for camps and rental property (ladder must extend past the bar when in use), or ... --->"C/L" Same as "C" but are for ladders that DO NOT extend past the loft edge. ---> We also make SHEPHERD'S HOOKS for ladders that are 4 inches or more BELOW the loft edge. Just ask. CUSTOM BRACKET LENGTH? How to figure Bracket Length of travel: 1. Pull your ladder out to the preferred angle, and (make a mark on the loft edge if the ladder DOES NOT extend past the loft for "L" Type brackets or) make a mark on the back of the ladder... 2. Then hold your ladder straight up and measure the difference. 3. We will add three inches to that measurement to be sure! ;o) 4. We make the "C" and "C/L" brackets extra long so that they work for most all ladders, so you DO NOT need to calculate length. ;o) If you need brackets longer/shorter than listed, just mention it in "MESSAGE TO SELLER" and we'll make them CUSTOM for you at no extra charge! CUSTOM BAR Width: You can tell us just the width you want ---> 1. Just the bar width. We will add the fittings to that (almost 5 inches). Or... 2. Tell us the total END-to-END measurements, Or... 3.
