Quiet Glide library ladder in a 96x20 unfinished cherry ladder format gives you a tall, wide rolling ladder body that fits into library or storage projects where a substantial wood ladder is needed. The ladder is unassembled and unfinished, so the cherry components arrive ready for shop finishing and final build-out based on your project standards. Each ladder is sanded to 120-grit, which creates a smooth working surface that accepts further sanding or finish prep without heavy rework. The ladder is flat-cut cherry, providing a consistent grain pattern that supports a uniform appearance across the ladder sides and steps. Pre-drilled holes for fasteners are built into the ladder sides, which sets the hole layout for attaching steps and related parts. The sides are dadoed for steps, forming positive step locations that help maintain consistent spacing and alignment down the length of the ladder.
The 96x20 unfinished cherry ladder format gives you a defined ladder envelope to work into your system layout before you start drilling or mounting other components. Pre-drilled holes for fasteners along the ladder sides create a fixed pattern for locating steps, which supports consistent rise and run in the finished ladder build. Dadoed sides for steps provide a physical seat for each step, helping the treads nest in a repeatable position during assembly. The ladder components are sanded to 120-grit, which supports clean glue interfaces at the dadoes and smooth surfaces at contact points. Because the ladder is unassembled and unfinished, you can dry-fit, adjust, and then finish the cherry surfaces at the stage that best aligns with your installation process.
This rolling library ladder belongs in applications that match a 96-inch tall ladder body with a 20-inch width, such as full-height library shelving, office built-ins, or tall storage runs. The flat-cut cherry construction pairs with other cherry casework when a continuous species and grain look is part of the design. The unfinished cherry surface lets you match existing finishes, from clear coats that highlight the grain to pigmented systems aligned with room trim. Because the sides are dadoed for steps and have pre-drilled holes for fasteners, the ladder works well in shop environments where repeatable rung spacing and a defined fastener pattern support production-style builds. The 120-grit sanded surfaces also suit finishing rooms that expect a predictable starting scratch profile before moving to higher grits or direct finishing steps.
The pre-drilled holes for fasteners drive consistent hole placement along both ladder sides, which matters when you are building multiple ladders to the same standard and need each rung to sit at identical heights. Dadoed sides for steps add a mechanical reference point for each step, so the treads sit in a defined pocket rather than relying only on edge alignment. That combination of dadoed seats and pre-drilled fastener holes supports square, repeatable ladder builds with less layout work on the bench. The unassembled format allows you to work the ladder sides individually at the router table, sander, or finishing line before final assembly, which can simplify handling of a tall component. The unfinished, 120-grit sanded cherry surfaces allow you to dial in final sanding and finishing schedules to match shop standards without removing any pre-applied coating.
The ladder is specified as a 96x20 unfinished cherry ladder, which defines the ladder body height and width for planning clearances and integration with tall shelving.
The ladder is unassembled and unfinished, so the cherry parts arrive ready for your assembly steps and your chosen finishing system without any prior coatings.
The ladder is sanded to 120-grit, giving you a smooth starting surface that supports additional sanding or direct finishing in line with shop standards.
The ladder has dadoed sides for steps and pre-drilled holes for fasteners, which together define consistent step positions along the ladder sides.
The ladder is described as flat-cut cherry, indicating a flat-cut grain orientation that supports a uniform visual appearance across the ladder components.
The manufacturer part number QG.6008-20.CH identifies this specific 96x20 unfinished cherry library ladder within the Quiet Glide rolling library ladders line.
The 96x20 unfinished cherry ladder from Quiet Glide aligns with projects that call for a tall, wide rolling library ladder built from flat-cut cherry stock. With unassembled, unfinished components sanded to 120-grit and prepared with dadoed sides for steps plus pre-drilled holes for fasteners, the ladder body is ready to integrate into a professional workflow. When a defined 96-inch ladder height, cherry species, and controlled step layout match your library, office, or storage design, this Quiet Glide library ladder stands as a practical choice for your next installation.
