Someone mentioned that they were unsure of their DIY skills, or ability to fit something like this, well they're not difficult, the important thing apart from fitting it correctly and securely, is that you make sure it has enough clearance and space to retract to and pivot, otherwise it won't work at all!
I don't like them, but heat added for the price.
Little bit of a price difference there

but Heat as it a Bargain!
We had one like it but we use the loft alot and after 6 months or so it just kinda gave up teh ghost and wasnt safe but its also my big fat bum lol
Is that the same as this one which is roughly half the price from B&Q? diy.com/roo…5c7

" sorry sir we dont actually have any of those in stock here"
Hence i never shop or use C&C for Homebase anymore.
Installation is pretty easy just make sure you got a decent drill to drill the screws into the floor board and be careful of wires! Hope this helps someone and good luck DIY'ing everyone!

I can also confirm easy to install, took 30mins
Although it doesnt say
Looks ideal for what I want, I'm only in the loft 4-5 times a year.
Is there a minimum distance required between the hatch & walls? I've had a quick look & it seems so. Trouble is, my loft access is in a corner above a doorway, so there is limited space
Good price for ladder though
out of stock at amazon.

Just make sure the loft opening is big enough for it to slide in and out
That wooden one is only really expensive if you don't shop around! It's £83 in B&Q!
Hahaha you sir are a genius, and by that i meant that type of ladder not that one in particular lol
If you can get it cheaper than wahey...fill ya boots
Great Price, i hadnt really shopped around just posted the link to the one on that site for the "type" that is alot "better"
Brilliant blog. It's a great way to deal with the frustration and despair.
I don't think it will mate as it says the minimum hatch clearance needs to be 0.7m. We've two loft hatches and they are both approx 0.5m which kills this one for us too unfortunately.We don't have floorboards in our loft either (only insulation) which needs addressing for us first before we can even consider one of these.
