Hi..
I have been looking at fitting a loft access with extendable ladder, as my current hole in the ceiling is a bit of a mare to get through.
I have measured the width of the joists today in the loft and they are 40cm apart, the width of the extendable ladder and access hatch in B&Q is 55cm... DAM!.. thankfully I hadn't brought anything yet, this is just in the planning stage.
The house is an old one, and with another baby on the way we could do with the extra storage space more readily available. So does anyone know, is 40cm quite a standard gap between joists and can anyone recommend a place to get the access hatch and ladder from?
Many Thanks
Duncan
