Hi! Thank you for your response - the 4m height is the inner floor level, not the roof level. To comply with building regs, an egress window has to be a maximum 4.5m from the outside floor level to enable the fire brigade to get a ladder to you! So it's within the recommended distance. And...
I've been desperately searching for the answer to this and coming up short!! Does anyone know if an egress/escape window can lead onto a lean-to roof, of which you would need to then walk along about 3-4 metres over the garage to then be rescued in the event of a fire?
We are looking at a loft...
