Need ideas for mounting a ladder on Packout

I was thinking of Tang the whole time reading through the posts.
I wish I knew more about the brackets. I kept thinking along the lines of our free Menards shelving brackets modified and maybe bent up, but probably not strong enough if sounds like. I was also thinking ladder more on the back of the box, but maybe you lay it flat or have it against a wall. Looks like it is coming together well for you. Most things invented I am sure were for a person's need for it, so you should patent it.
I know one of my jobs the engineers are constantly building things with 3-D printers, like hooks to open the door (I have mastered opening a lot of doors with my foot or knee by now LOL). I am old school and wander around and rig things up with the things we have. One day it was a huge old cardboard sign and a mop and wheeled mop bucket to block sunlight coming indoor that needed to stay open that day. It was out of the way and did its purpose. It didn't look pretty, but it was on wheels and a temporary fix. They better look out I am already eyeing a gutter that leaks and getting a trap to get rain to go down the driveway. This happens if you give me to much time, with not much to do.
