Should you have your boiler in the loft you must provide safe access to the boiler. Many companies will not service or repair boilers in lofts without an access ladder, boarding from hatch to boiler and a light.

Loft safety is very important, accidents can happen and helping prevent them especially in lofts is very important. The most common accidents in lofts are falling through the ceiling and falling down the loft hatch opening. In both cases we can help prevent this from happening, by installing good quality strong flooring in the areas you want to access and install a rail or balustrade around the opening of the hatch, to stop anyone from walking backwards or stumbling toward the loft hatch. It’s a long way down and could be quite nasty, so it’s worth considering installing a safety balustrade or railing.

This commonly asked question is difficult to answer and depends on individual needs. Attic stairs are available at varying specifications and prices to suit different requirements. Folding stairs can be made from different materials such as wood or metal, can be automatic or manual, and installed in rooms of different height. The installation price also depends on the size of the ceiling hatch, varying between 55-70cm in width and 80-120cm in length. Installation of wooden folding stairs with insulated ceiling hatch, handle and plastic feet to protect floor panels or carpet takes a few steps. The effort involves preparatory work to enlarge the hatch opening to the appropriate size, installing the hatch and stairs, and fitting decorative architraves that can be finished with either clear varnish or white paint upon request. The price of a standard attic stairs installation refers to 60x120cm stairs and width between joists of up to 68cm. For a standard installation, the height of the room should be less than 280cm, no additional work, such as electrical installation, fire detectors or pipes work should be required, and the ceiling should be made from plasterboard. For non standard installations, where there are other obstacles preventing the installation of standard 60x120cm wooden stairs, or if a hatch opening (old hatch) width is more than 71cm, it is recommended to use a larger 70x120cm stairs. Restricted space that prevents folding stairs is also a frequent issue. Other matters include structural obstacles on installation, such as bearing beams, steel beams, water tanks or gas pipes. For non-standard installations, MINI metal 4 section stairs with a box size of 60x80cm are a proven solution, so are TERMO 60x100cm wooden stairs Conclusion: Attic stairs can vary significantly in terms of price and specifications, as well as in the complexity and effort required to install them. Folding stairs are available in both wood and metal materials, can be manual or automatic, and can be installed in rooms of varying heights. For a standard installation, the ceiling should be made from plasterboard, the width between joists should be up to 68cm, the height of the room should be below 280cm, and no additional work such as electrical installation, fire detectors or pipes should be required. The hatch opening should also typically be between 55-70cm in width and 80-120cm in length. Depending on the circumstances of the installation, larger wooden stairs of 70x120cm may be more suitable for non-standard installations that have obstacles such as bearing beams, steel beams, water tanks or gas pipes restricting space. For restrictive spaces that cannot fit folding stairs, MINI metal 4 section stairs with a box size of 60x80cm or TERMO 60x100cm wooden stairs are recommended solutions. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/56da10_6dbc995d4f6049c28639e89086e6d129~mv2.jpg
