The "SDL" secure key lockable steel 60-minute fire rated hinge down loft access hatch has a simplistic design for the contemporary modern house.
With its powder coated zintec steel, smooth white maintenance free finish, it requires no painting and projects into the ceiling space a mere 8mm.
Once the drop down loft door is opened, it has a large clear opening of 630mmx520mm. This will assist if you have catered for storing bulky items into the loft space, e.g. suitcases and boxes.
The loft hatch is insulated with a massive 100mm of fire resistant mineral slab insulation to comply with the building regulations 0.35 "U" value.
The SDL has a new improved, secure seven pin radial tumbler lock with a hardened steel centre and body. The loft hatch offers a higher level of security for items stored in the attic, and helps to discourage children from entering the attic space.
The SDL loft access hatch is compatible with our entire range of loft ladders.
The SDL loft trap has concealed hinges and a completely flush lid to frame, giving a contemporary simplistic look.
The loft hatch has a neat recessed double-pin tamperproof lock with integral chamfer for a smooth closing action. Two keys are supplied, further keys can be purchased on request.
In addition to the draught seal between the loft hatch frame and lid, the SDL has an extra concealed draught seal between the frame and ceiling. This virtually eliminates vapour ingress and warm air leakage, it also helps with decorating the ceiling up to the edge of the frame.
