There seems to be some confusion between the written description of the product in relationsion to the physical dimensonsd of the product and the technical drawing that goes with it. The most important dimension is the physical opening size in the ceiling. I got it right more by luck than the information provided.

Quick delivery and product exactly as described, sorted!

Good communication from Jupiter Blue. Order arrived on time. Loft hatch was as described, easy to install and looks good.

We’ll build loft Hatch and easy to install. Went for a twist lock which has positive and secure feel and no play when locked. Hinge pins look ok strong with no side-to-side play. Very pleased with the purchase.

Purchased a loft hatch for newly cut loft! Wasn’t looking forward to doing this but your product was amazing. Easy to access your site, came quickly after ordering it and most definitely the easiest of installations. My wife was most impressed as she does all the painting so didn't need to do the loft hatch, win win. Would recommend it on this basis!

Hinge section is too flimsy door drops off on hinge side if knocked. Going to have to adapt it

This is quite a flimsy hatch, the clips broke while fitting. Fortunately we've replaced the hatch for aesthetics only and won't use the loft space, but if it was a hatch we'd use regularly, I'd have requested to return the item and bought a sturdier one. On the plus side it was very easy to fit, looks much better than the old wooden one, and the service from the company for delivery was excellent.

Nice quality item at a good price. On removing the old hatch, we found that the ceiling had been over boarded, so could not use the fixing holes in the upstand flange without extending them with metal brackets from a DIY shop. Once fitted it looked good and operated well. Would be nice if it came with a pole to operate the catch...
