  • Patent number: 6786300
    Abstract: A unitary step unit has a generally rectangular main body portion with opposed transverse ends and laterally opposed sides. One end is bent downward and angularly outward with respect to the main body portion and terminates in a short upturned lip that extends angularly upward and inward. The step unit is removably installed on the existing step of a conventional ladder having channel-shaped steps by engaging the upturned lip against the bottom edge of the down-turned longitudinal side of the step and then pivoting the unit downwardly such that the upturned lip of the unit is captured on the bottom edge of the down-turned longitudinal side of the step and its main body portion is supported on top of the step and extends a distance rearwardly beyond the width of the step in cantilever fashion to provide a relatively wide flat foot-supporting surface.
