You dont need to make a ladder LOOK like a ladder!
I have made ladders out of TREES! Oh, and there are a few ladder textures. You can make a ladder out of anything as long as you have that pink ladder thing in front of it!

You just got to use a metal or wooden texture depending on what you want.
there is no specific "ladder texture"

Make several brushes, so build "rungs"

make two long brushes a good distance apart from each other go as high as you want the ladder to, and make some other brushes that go across them (try using gri 8's smallest size for both of these, it works wonders) so you create rungs.

the texture that makes a ladder functional is common/ladder i believe. it is purple and has ladder written on it

yes, make another brush with that texture in front of your structural ladder and make it a func_ladder

It's really easy to make it micky. Just make 2 long verticaly brushes and make many small horizontaly brushes and put them between the long brushes at different heights. What's difficult about that?

Here you can download a prefab of a ladder so you can study on it

And an another prefab:

After you made a ladder you must do what Leadhead and lizarddude said.

Or did you mean something else?
