Basics to Install an Attic Door

Installing an attic door comes with many basic requirements. These include the type of framing, sizing, and material needed to provide an effective mechanism for storing your items in your home. Typically, attics fit within a 24-inch floor joist or truss spacing. If you have a more significant gap between the spacing to install a ladder, additional framing will be required to ensure everything fits appropriately. The heavier the ladder, the sturdier it will be. So, we recommend installing one that can handle the weight of the heaviest person using it, plus the heaviest load they can haul up the ladder. If you want added features to your attic ladder, we can install handrails, a folding mechanism, a specialized angle for convenience, and more. We can also provide insulation for added protection.
