Today we are fitting the Easiway loft ladder, this product is an ideal solution for simple basic storage use/occasional use.

For this particular loft ladder, there is no need for any cutting in the ceiling, it’s a case of installing the loft ladder into your current hatch opening/hole.  Your home like most others probably has a hatch you push and to the side, for this loft ladder, we would hinge down the hatch and put a twist catch on it.

Lets get to work…

Does this situation look familiar to you? this hatch was just a simply push up lid.  Push it up and to the side to access your loft.  We will change this.

We removed the current hatch and now we will prepare the loft ladder for installation.
