SafeLadder is an approved an certified solution that will be a new tool in the otherwise limited toolbox, when it comes to complying with all fire requirements and restrictions in construction.
Klejngaard Safety has developed and patented a rescue system that constitutes a smoke-free emergency exit that increases the resident’s safety. As the system adds security to the building, it opens opportunities concerning the use of the building’s square meters, which can be increased and improved in many cases.
It is more sustainable to renovate rather than build new buildings, and this particular solution increases the opportunity to make optimal use of existing areas in existing buildings.

Older stairwells function similar to chimneys in a fire and are often blocked by garbage bags and rubber boots. When installing a Klejngaard Safety rescue system, safety increases significantly as it is a smoke-free emergency exit.
The flexible placement of the system allows increased access to a building, thus increasing the number of rescue openings and emergency exits. With this increase in building safety, an increased number of people can be approved per floor.
Often areas around a building are set aside as a fire rescue area, as the fire department must have space to raise their ladders in case of fire. We can ensure the fire department’s access from, for example, the backyard side, which is why the areas can be utilized for other purposes.
There is huge untapped potential in the old urban drying lofts. Obtaining the necessary fire approvals can often be challenging, which is why projects are stalling. Our product can enable the required security to obtain permission.
To ensure rescue from the back of a building, there is often a requirement to establish a gate of a certain size. When installing Klejngaard rescue systems, the ladders are already present at the back of the building, which is why the size of the gate is no longer defined by size requirements concerning being able to enter with ladders.
When it comes to meeting the building code for fire, you can walk a minimal number of roads. With the Klejngaard rescue system, there is now a new road that opens up new opportunities and architectural freedom in general.
An increase in security is an improvement of the building in general, as, of course, it benefits the resident.

— This is a major change from the current solution of hand carried 12 m. ladders, as people will not have to wait for the rescue services to arrive before starting evacuation […] more buildings are currently applying for permission to remove old secondary escape routes […] this product will be a viable solution to this.
