How to choose the right folding loft ladder

The NOZIERES suits hallways, landings and small rooms where a conventional folding loft ladder, which needs almost 150 cm of floor space, will not fit. With the 80 cm-long frame, it takes up 101 cm; with the 90 and 100 cm frames, 135 cm.

Its limitation is ceiling height: 260 cm with the 80 cm frame and 265 cm with the others. For better insulation, the same ladder is available with a 46 mm or 86 mm hatch.

Installation advice

Loft opening: prepare an opening to suit the chosen frame, allowing around 5 mm of clearance all round. Check that there is at least 135 mm of clear height above the ceiling to accommodate the frame.

Fixing: secure the frame to the floor structure (joists and trimmers) with screws suitable for the substrate, following the instructions. Check that the frame is square before fully tightening the screws: a twisted frame will prevent the hatch from closing properly.

Adjustment: unfold the ladder, measure the ceiling height and trim the last section so that it rests flat on the floor. Finally, join the loft insulation around the frame to prevent thermal bridges.

Care and protection

Once a year, check that the screws are tight, inspect the joints between ladder sections and make sure the hatch-opening mechanism works properly. Lubricate the mechanisms if the hatch becomes difficult to open, and dust the treads.

The hatch can be painted to match the ceiling. Take care not to block the seal between the hatch and frame, which provides an airtight fit.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a folding loft ladder for a 60 x 60 cm opening?

Not in this range: the smallest NOZIERES frame measures 80 x 60 cm. In our selection, the shortest frames measure 70 x 50 cm (ABANTOS) and 70 x 60 cm (EVIRES). A 60 x 60 cm opening must therefore be enlarged, generally along the joists.

Which folding loft ladder suits an 80 x 60 cm opening?

The NOZIERES 26 is available with an 80 x 60 cm or 80 x 70 cm frame. In these sizes, it takes up just 101 cm of floor space when unfolded and suits ceiling heights up to 260 cm.

How much space is needed to unfold a space-saving loft ladder?

The NOZIERES 26 requires 101 cm of floor space with the 80 cm frame and 135 cm with the 90 and 100 cm frames. Also allow 115 to 126 cm of clearance to open the hatch.

How do you choose the frame size for a folding loft ladder?

Choose the frame size to suit the loft opening: its dimensions correspond to the opening needed in the ceiling, with a clearance of around 5 mm all round for installation. Measure the existing opening, or the one you can create between the joists, then choose the largest frame that will fit without exceeding its dimensions.

Do you need to trim a folding loft ladder to length?

Yes, usually. The ladder is supplied for the maximum ceiling height and is trimmed at the bottom so that its last section rests flat on the floor. Measure the ceiling height, unfold the ladder and cut it according to the instructions.
