Location – Palmers Green, London
Today we are fitting the Easiway loft ladder, this product is an ideal product for simple basic storage and 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. Sometimes we may need to install a new door as some doors are old and or are not suitable for the hinges.
Lets get to work…
This is the current hatch. As you can see its just a piece of timber that site on top of the hole (you are very likely to have a similar setup).
We remove the lid/hatch door and get the loft ladder ready for installation.
Ok loft ladder out of its packing, prepared and ready to install. We now start to install the Easiway loft ladder into the opening.
We now have to fix the loft ladder into place.
Now that the loft ladder is fixed into place, we check that it is secure and test that it is working correctly.
Ok the loft ladder is secure and works great. This particular customer is going to have a new hatch door fitted. We get to work on cutting down a new hatch door.
Once the new hatch door is cut to size, we take it back inside and check that its all ok.
Fits like a glove!
Time to secure the new hatch door into place.
