Sliding Aluminum Ladder Rooftop Tent James Baroud

James Baroud Aluminum Ladder: Secure access to your Rooftop Tent

L'James Baroud sliding aluminum ladder This is the original ladder supplied with James Baroud tents. You may need it as a replacement (after several seasons of heavy use), to equip a second vehicle, or to add a wider ladder (38.5cm) for easier access. Designed specifically for rooftop camping on 4x4s and SUVs, it adapts to all vehicle heights thanks to its sliding system.

Corrosion-resistant anodized aluminum, non-slip grooved steps, upper hooks adjusted to the James Baroud frame, rubber bumpers at the bottom: this is the benchmark ladder for rooftop camping. With a resistance exceeding 150 kg, it reliably supports true adventurers who climb up and down several times a day.

What is its intended use?

The ladder extends to provide access to the tent and folds down along the shell for transport. The wide version (38.5 x 310 cm) offers greater comfort for users who frequently descend at night (equipment storage, access to a nearby parked vehicle) or for those with mobility issues. The standard versions (31.5 cm) are perfectly adequate for typical use.

Installation and maintenance

The ladder attaches directly to the James Baroud hull—no tools required. For very tall vehicles (Sprinter, camper van), choose the 310cm version. For standard SUVs/4x4s, the 246cm version is ideal. Maintenance: Rinse with fresh water at the end of the season to remove traces of salt (due to coastal areas) or mud.
