FAGEOLE Loft Ladder

FAGEOLE Loft Staircase - Adjustable Kit 220-300 cm, Fir, Beech or Oak, 14 Treads

The FAGEOLE loft staircase is delivered as a kit for assembly tailored to your exact configuration. Its height is adjustable from 220 to 300 cm thanks to its cuttable stringers and pivot-adjustable tread system — the treads remain horizontal regardless of the slope set. It is available in 3 wood species: fir, glued-laminated beech and glued-laminated oak, in variable widths from 60 to 90 cm depending on the version.

The stair tread section is thicker than on budget models: 195x34 mm in fir and 190x30 mm in beech and oak — which gives it better wear resistance and less deflection under load. The staircase is delivered in 2 parcels (parcel 1: stringers / parcel 2: treads) and does not include a handrail — to be ordered separately.

Main characteristics

Packaging

• ✓ Parcel 1: Stringers
• ✓ Parcel 2: Treads

Key points

• ✓ Thick section: 195x34 mm (fir) — superior to budget models (145x28 mm), better wear resistance
• ✓ Height 220-300 cm: very wide adjustment range — covers almost all mezzanine and loft configurations
• ✓ 3 wood species: fir for economy, beech or oak for durability and aesthetics
• ✓ Width 60 to 90 cm: wide choice to adapt passage comfort to the available space
• ✓ Metal pivots: slope adjustment without altering the horizontality of the treads
• ✓ 2 parcels: stringers and treads separated — easier handling in confined spaces

Installation advice

The slope is adjusted by inclining the stringers relative to the treads via the metal pivots. The greater the available floor space, the gentler the slope. Adjust and lock the pivots before final fixing. Check the horizontality of each tread with a spirit level after adjustment.

Oak stringers are particularly heavy — allow for two people during installation. Always pre-drill before screwing into oak or beech. Fix the staircase to the floor and upper deck with fixings appropriate for the substrate.

Maintenance and protection

Apply a finish suited to the chosen wood species before first use. On raw fir (195x34 mm), an oil-wax or a 2-coat varnish. On beech or oak, a 2-3 coat staircase varnish is recommended for wear resistance. Routine cleaning with a dry cloth or slightly damp cloth.

WoodUp Advice

The FAGEOLE is the best choice in the loft staircase range for more intensive use: its 195x34 mm (fir) or 190x30 mm (beech/oak) section is significantly thicker than budget models (145x28 mm), resulting in less flexion under load and better long-term durability. If your use goes beyond occasional access to a mezzanine, investing in the FAGEOLE rather than the AULAC or the BASSEYRE is worthwhile.

Important before purchasing: the handrail is not included. It must be ordered separately and fitted during initial assembly. The available width (60-90 cm) allows you to choose the most suitable version for your space — for frequent load-carrying use, the 80 cm width is recommended.
