I use a Fracarro satellie inclinometer against my ladder to confirm

With a long ladder its also worth standing well back from it to ensure
that standing vertically up the wall. When putting up a ladder it's
looked vertical from the base of the ladder but when standing back and
looking at it from a distance I've often found that it may have a lean
to the side by 0.5m at the top.



agreed but i also use the inclinometer on the ladder stiles to check it
is absolutely vertical.....
