To ease the ascent to a sleeping loft tucked beneath his home's cathedral ceiling, architect Lawrence Steiner designed this two-position, swing-out ladder. During the day, the hinged foot folds in so the ladder stores flat against the wall. When it's time for bed, guests simply swing the ladder out and flip down the foot; it anchors the ladder at an easy-to-climb 20| angle. The fitting of this loft ladder requires reasonable DIY skills and may need carpentry skills to modify the loft hatch/door to swing down using the kit of parts supplied with the ladder. Lofts and finished attics must be accessible by a conventional stairway or other access to be counted. If you can only reach the loft by climbing a ladder, it’s not part of the finished floor area regardless of the ceiling height. If you do choose to invest in a fully installed loft ladder, the opening that you have been struggling with can be opened up at the same time, usually at no extra cost and fitting usually takes just one day. Some companies can also include those other essentials to make the most of your lofty space by including flooring, insulation, lighting and even roof windows.
