What does an attic ladder installation include?
Attic ladder installation includes everything from cutting a hole in your ceiling to measuring the height of the ladder and fitting the ladder in place. They’ll carry out each step of the installation with care and precision, including:
Step 1: Measuring and cutting
Your loft ladder installer will start by measuring the space, checking the hole in your ceiling to make sure it’s big enough to fit the ladder. They may cut a hole in your ceiling if you don’t already have one or extend your current hole if needed. They’ll check to make sure there are no cables or plumbing pipes above before making any cuts in your ceiling. If there are panels above where your attic access is, they’ll cut these panels (provided they’re not structural panels) to make a gap, allowing your ladder to fit.
Step 2: Fitting the ladder
Once your space is measured and prepared, your attic ladder installer will fit the ladder in the hole. This will include temporarily installing the ladder to make sure everything fits, and that the hatch can be opened and closed properly. They’ll also check that the ladder can be folded up into the ceiling before they drill all the pieces in place.
Step 3: Adjusting the height of the ladder
The final step of your loft ladder and latch installation is to measure the length the ladder needs to be. Most attic ladders come full length and need to be cut down to suit the height of your ceiling. Your technician will extend the ladder fully and measure how much needs to be taken off the ends before cutting it to the right length. They’ll add stoppers to the ends to protect your floors from sharp edges. Once your ladder is installed, your technician will test the ladder themselves and do a final check to make sure it can be pulled down and accessed with ease.

I would like a new attic ladder installed in my ceiling please. The ladder is new and I have it already. It is a Gorilla Wooden Attic Ladder 3.05m ALW305 (https://www.bunnings.com.au/gorilla-2-1-3-05m-150kg-timber-attic-ladder_p0860951). The work required is to cut the existing plasterboard and adjust any existing items in the roof where the ladder will be fitted. The existing ceiling joists are 600 mm centres and there may need to be additional timber installed to allow the ladder to be installed on 600mm ceiling joist centres. The ladder should installed and fully working to complete the job. The price you submit should be all inclusive of any required works and if required I can answer more questions or provide more images. I would like this installed sooner rather than later, but am flexible on the date.
Fantastic Job. Installed Attic Ladder, great finish. Very professional. I'm handy, but not a job I would attempt on my own!

I would like a new attic ladder installed in my ceiling please. The ladder is new and I have it already. It is a Kimberley KASW14 ladder (www.factoryoverstocks.com.au/kasw14). The work required is to cut the existing plasterboard and adjust any existing items in the roof where the ladder will be fitted, as per the images. The existing ceiling joists are roughly 790mm centres and there need to be additional timber installed to allow the ladder to be installed on 600mm ceiling joist centres. The ladder should installed and fully working to complete the job. The price you submit should be all inclusive of any required works and if required I can answer more questions or provide more images. I would like this installed sooner rather than later, but am flexible on the date. I also have listed a second job to install a WindMaster - wind driven roof ventilator and would be happy to receive a price to install both items together.
