Hi

Our opening is 850*570mm and our current hatch is 830*550mm. Try as I may I can't seem to find any that would fit. Can anyone direct me to relevant product. (our house was built in 1981 so shouldn't be unique).

Also, ideally I'd like one of the ones with drop down ladder fitted. I understood from chat to relatives that most of these require hatch to be widened. Is that right?

Thanks for your time.

There are a number of variables (not least safety) to take into account before installing a drop down ladder. You would do better to go to a specialist loft supplies site and view their pics and details.

Re-trimming the joists or even moving the opening are simple jobs but all dimensions in the loft, and at the landing below must be figured out in advance.
 
Thanks. Forgetting about ladder type, just weird that bog standard covers didn't fit our opening.
