A proper loft ladder turns an awkward pull-down hatch into safe, everyday access — no more balancing on a stepladder or squeezing through a gap with both hands full.
At ST Lofts, we supply and fit a range of loft ladders to suit your home and how often you’ll use your loft, from occasional storage access to a ladder built for daily use.
It’s a quick, self-contained job that makes a real difference to how usable your loft actually is.
We supply and fit the ladder itself, along with any hatch adjustments needed to fit it properly. This includes checking the hatch opening is the right size, that the ladder is securely fixed to the loft structure, and that it operates smoothly and safely once installed.
If your existing hatch is too small or in the wrong position for a ladder, we can resize or reposition it as part of the same job.
We’re a specialist loft company, so we fit ladders properly — securely fixed, correctly balanced, and sized to your hatch, not just a generic ladder wedged into whatever gap is there.
We check your loft hatch size and position, the space available below it, and how the loft will actually be used, to recommend the right ladder type for your home rather than a one-size-fits-all option.
Folding Ladders
The most common option, folding away neatly into the loft when not in use.
Sliding Ladders
A compact, sturdy option that slides out from the hatch opening.
Telescopic Ladders
Extends and retracts section by section, ideal for tighter spaces.
Ladder with Loft Boarding
Combine your ladder installation with boarding for safe, accessible storage.
If climbing into your loft currently means a wobbly stepladder or an awkward stretch, a properly fitted loft ladder solves that in a single, straightforward job.
We offer free, no-obligation surveys and clear, honest advice on the right ladder for your home.
Some of the most common questions about loft ladder installation.
Loft ladder installation includes supplying and fitting the ladder, securing it to your loft structure, and adjusting or resizing the hatch opening if needed so the ladder operates safely and smoothly.
Most loft ladder installations are completed within a few hours, though hatch resizing can add a little extra time depending on the work involved.
It depends on how often you’ll use your loft and the space available. Folding ladders suit most homes, while sliding or telescopic options work well in tighter spaces. We’ll recommend the right type during your free survey.
Yes, this is a common combination. Fitting both together gives you safe access and a proper storage surface in a single visit.
