Times are changing, fashion becomes very rapid even in the field of construction. If earlier we climbed the attic to sit in a secluded place or to chop with friends, now everything has changed dramatically. Any person will tell you that the best use of the place under the roof is the arrangement of the living room there. It is even now called the attic, which allows you to get the original site.
Since you also need to get to the attic, the question arises about what stairs to equip. In principle, they are three types! Ceremonial, which have an impressive dimensions and a presentable look, compact, which is much more modest and the angle of inclination is higher, and of course, cool. The latter usually appear before us in the form of a bailiff, but it is they who are put on the way to the attic.
It is worth noting that many refuse to climb the attic precisely because of such a dangerous staircase. Of course, it is more convenient than a ladder or a simple attached version. However, remember that here it may not be handrails or fences. So, you will have to immediately close the hatch so as not to fall into it. In principle, this is the right decision, since in forgetfulness there were injuries precisely because of the open space.
There are two types of such a structure: folding or sliding. If you plan to take the last option, then it is very convenient in operation. In order to open it, you should pull the step and the ladder is under your feet. The same mechanism is used in those moments when you push it. Just pull a little on yourself, and it becomes minimal. It remains only to cover the hatch cover and everything is ready.
There are restrictions on such options, people with great weight should not get involved in walking on such modest copies. Suppose, as the passport of the subject shows, it can withstand approximately 150 kg. However, with an experimental measurement, the stairs withstood even 260 kgs, but this does not mean that it is worth constantly giving such an impressive load. It will be able to withstand the mass, but you will reduce the service life very much due to such negligence.
Note that it is best to take a staircase with a dustproof lid, this will help keep it clean. Anyway, such a cover can also serve you additional insulation.
