 Fire rated Bespoke Loft Hatch
This high quality "Made to Measure" Fire rated hinge down steel loft hatch has a sleek design for the contemporary modern house. There are no projecting hinges or handles, just simple clean lines.

Construction and finish
The hatch is Powder coated 1.2mm zintec steel smooth white (RAL 9010) maintenance free finish. The loft access door requires no painting and projects into the ceiling space a mere 8mm.
The hatch frame depth is 63mm (going up into the loft).
Please note if it is less than 450mm from the hinge to the lock side the depth of the panel and insulation is reduced to 30mm to enable it to close.

Insulation and thermal efficiency
The Part "L" compliant loft hatch is insulated with 50mm of exposed fire resistant mineral slab.

The loft hatch has a neat steel, silver tri-drive budget lock with a built in chamfer to give a smooth closing action.

In addition, the loft door has a concealed draught seal between the mitred frame and door, providing a phenomenally high air seal rating. This virtually eliminates vapour ingress and/or warm air leakage and it also makes for easy decoration of the ceiling up to the edge of the loft door surround.

Lock options

Choose from:
1) Standard Tri-Drive lock - a high quality lock with integrated internal O-Ring seal for improved airtightness

2) Key lock - a neat key operated lock. Useful for situations where access to loft space needs to be restricted e.g. communal areas or rental properties
Fitting instructions are included.

Both lock options operate a chamfered cam which applies compression between the door face and the seal on the frame to maintain airtightness.

What measurements are required to make your hatch to the right size?

Please measure the length and width of your loft opening in mm. Please deduct 5mm from each dimension to allow for the hatch not being exactly square. Please double check your measurements as these loft hatches are made to order. If you are in doubt, please call us on 01937 325 325 for advice.

Need a Fire Rated loft hatch bigger than 900x600mm?

Q My opening is out of square, is the 5mm deduction enough?
A Please call for individual advice on the matter.

Q Does the door sit flush with the frame?
A To ensure a tight air seal the door projects marginally on the lock side, however over a period of about 3 months this will reduce by approx 50% to roughly 2mm
