The modern arrangement of private houses involves the use of the most compact and mechanized household items to save space. To the full, it concerns also the arrangement of the place of ascent to the attic. And in return for cumbersome ladders manufacturers offer different variations of folding models.
Advantages of folding attic stairs
Folding ladders for attacks to the attic space are much more convenient than stationary models and ladders, since the first clutter up space, and the second ones are not safe due to low stability.
Folding attic ladders are compact and safe, they save precious centimeters in the room, especially since not so often we have to go up to the attic to sacrifice space for this.
In addition, such ladders significantly reduce the risk of injury to young children in the home and their penetration into the attic in the absence of adults.
Types of attic folding stairs
All folding attic ladders differ in the material of manufacture on wooden and metal and in the way of unfolding into folding and sliding.
Sliding ladders consist of 2 or 3 sections, which are moved apart with the help of guides, another name - telescopic.
Folding wooden attic ladders consist of 3-4 sections, which are stacked on each other, forming a compact design. The uppermost section of such a ladder is attached to the hatch cover from its upper side and is not visible when folded. When you open the hatch, the ladder is gradually unfolded with a special rod.
Metal folding attic stairs, as a rule, have a folding mechanism of the "accordion" type. They also hide behind the lid of the attic and are endowed with a reliable mechanism that excludes the spontaneous folding and unfolding of the staircase.
Also there is a type of retractable ladders, which are pushed into the attic space. And in this case the place for them should always be free from various objects.
All types of folding, sliding and sliding attic stairs are released complete with a heated sunroof. To its cover is attached a ladder, and you need only fix the hatch in the necessary place in the ceiling and start using the structure. Depending on the configuration of the ladder with handrails, its height and the number of sections, as well as the material of manufacture, the cost of it can vary.
