Hi All,
My existing loft hatch is a bit messy and is 665w and 656 long, I was thinking of making it longer so that I don't scratch my back on the way up or down, I haven't as yet, but I do tuck my back in and even then it's close. I was thinking of making it longer say 700 long, I can find a made to measure Fire resistant one but that's £324, is there an easy way of finding one that has the same width (665) and a bit longer than 656? I guess the alternative is to make one out of wood. Then comes the question, do I leave it the size it is to save taking the achitarave (fancy bit of wood around the hatch) and possible make a mess of the ceiling, or is that fairly easy Not to damage and go big?
Many Thanks,
Steve
