If you’ve ever worked in a retail or warehouse environment, you already know: the simplest tasks can quickly become time sinks or safety risks — especially when you’re climbing ladders or hunting down tools.

SawTrax understands these challenges. That’s why the Pocket Reacher and Reach-Now Holster were designed — to streamline your work, keep tools within reach, and most importantly, help you stay safe and productive.

Climb Ladders the Right Way — With Both Hands Free

There’s only one safe way to climb a ladder: using both hands. Yet countless employees risk injury every day by carrying tools like reach poles in their hands while ascending.

The Pocket Reacher, stored securely in the Reach-Now Holster, solves this problem. Worn on a belt loop, apron, or smock, the Pocket Reacher stays tucked away when not in use, freeing up both hands for safe climbing. Once at the top, it extends from 17″ to 35″ in seconds — ready to reach into deep shelving or pull forward items from pallet racks without straining or overreaching.

Stop Wasting Time Searching for Reach Poles

In many retail stores, it’s common to find employees hiding reach poles so they’ll have one “saved” for later. Others get misplaced or left behind in another aisle. The result? Workers spend up to 30+ minutes just locating a tool that should always be available.

With the Pocket Reacher worn on your person via the holster, there’s no more searching. The tool is always with you — reducing unnecessary steps and maximizing productivity. Whether you’re merchandising product, stocking shelves, or organizing the back room, having instant access to a reach pole speeds up tasks and minimizes downtime.

A Compact Tool That Packs a Punch

• Lightweight (just 8–10 oz.) and telescoping, the Pocket Reacher is compact enough to carry all day without noticing it’s there.

• Choose between the Standard Head or the HD Head for heavy-duty jobs like pulling bags of soil or mulch.

• The hooked tail design lets you hang it on a pallet rack or shelf when not using the holster.

• Full reach pole systems are available with pre-attached heads: see Reacher Poles with Heads.

Whether you’re managing a busy warehouse or keeping retail shelves stocked, this toolset is a simple, smart investment that just makes sense.
