The control panel of the ladder was placed at the second floor of the building beside of display room. The control has “up” and “down” push button used to operate the ladder up and down. The control panel was connected to the fire alarm so that incase  the fire alarm  rang the ladder will work automatically. The materials  used in the controls was procured from  Raon St. Quiapo, Manila. It included the  push button, indicator light, 12vdc relay, and terminal block. For the materials used on the ladder, it was fabricated to Joel Steels and Fabrication.
