Loft Conversion Staircases & Ladders

The success of your loft conversion depends a great deal on your choice of loft conversion staircases and ladders and the access they provide. The kind of Loft conversion staircases and ladders that you can use are governed by building regulations. As per regulations there needs to be sufficient headroom of not less than 2m and the staircase should be wide enough to provide safe passage during emergency.

loft_conversions_stairs_quoteStaircases can either be constructed ‘on site’ or you can buy ready-made staircases which are a more affordable option. Loft conversion staircases and ladders can take up a large amount of space. Thus, the right positioning of loft staircases and ladders becomes very important. They should be installed in such a way that they utilize minimum space yet give maximum safety. Usually, the installation of a staircase leads to loss of space but you can prevent loss of space by not leaving any dead spaces, positioning the staircase optimally and by using the space under the staircase for storage.

As far as loft conversion staircases and ladders go, traditional straight staircases are very popular. But you can also choose a stylish spiral staircase or alternating tread stairs depending on your needs. Although spiral staircases help beautify your house, it is difficult to move furniture on them. They may also take up more space.

loft_conversions_staircaseAlternating tread stairs are a better option when you have constrained room space to place a staircase. In some areas however, building control regulators don’t agree to the use of alternating tread stairs or compact stairs for loft conversions. If you plan to use your loft conversion just as storage, then you can install a wood or aluminium ladder. A ladder is often more affordable than a staircase but not suitable your loft conversion is a bedroom or a lounge area. Lighting is also an important factor to keep in mind when installing loft conversion staircases and ladders since staircases require light switches both at the bottom and the top.
