Hi,
I'm hoping to make the ground floor of our terrace open plan (sprinkler/mist system and open stairs covered elsewhere), but want to check requirements for 1st floor. I understand all habitable rooms need a fire door, but does the stairs to the habitable loft room need one as well? I don't see why it wouldn't, but can it be at the bottom of the stairs ok as pictured (arrows show going up the stairs? Or does it need a landing of some sort between the bottom of the stairs and the door?
Thanks in advance
