Do these even need to be at the top? Head height and a piece of rope may
do it.


And a lot safer to install in the first place.

A safety harness clipped to the, secured, ladder may not be a bad idea if
you are concerned- even if you are normally ok on a ladder you can get
distracted and taking chances is a good idea if you arent 100% confident
in the ladder etc.


Alternatively, consider hiring a platform.
