The "SP2" is a budget steel push-up 60-minute fire rated loft access hatch with a smooth simplistic design.
The loft access trap is finished with a powder coat onto zintec steel for a smooth white maintenance free surface. The loft hatch requires no painting and the frame fits flush to the ceiling.
Once the loft door is open, it has a very large clear opening of 712mm x 520mm to assist with storing bulky items, such as suitcases into the loft space.
The loft hatch lid is insulated with a substantial 100mm of fire resistant mineral slab to comply with the current building regulations of 0.35 "U" value.
The SP2 loft hatch is draught sealed between the frame and lid to virtually eliminate warm air leakage. It also reduces cold air and vapour leaking in from the loft.
The white colour of the loft hatch is RAL No. 9010 with 20% gloss.
The ceiling cut out (trim) size for the loft hatch is 755mm x 555mm.
Easy to fit instructions are on the box.
Strictly compliant to the following regulations:
1 hour fire test to UKAS standards.
Exceeds Part "L" of the thermal building regulations to 0.35 "U" value.
NHBC compliant for attic doors, including 520mm clear opening in any direction.
The loft hatch is UKAS air infiltration tested without the need for extra sealant to the external frame and ceiling.
In addition:
The ceiling hatch insulation is CFC & HCFC free, ODP (ozone depletion) zero and compliant to Eco Homes standards of a GWP (global warming potential) rating of zero.
The SP2 loft access trap box packaging is made from 100% recycled cardboard and 100% recyclable.
Please note the SP2 cannot be used with our loft ladders.
Reviews
-
Solid, easy to install and looks really tidy once fitted. Perfect
-
Good quality stainless steel screws need care to fit as are little soft. Best to fit with steel then replace once supported with stainless ones. My fault not the product.
-
Solid hat h delivered quickly, can't say more as not fitted yet.
-
This is a very sturdy product. Well made. But my only negative comments would be that the fitting instructions state there should be 8 no. fixing points but the product only had 4 no. points. This hatch would benefit from a two person installation as I struggled myself.
-
Good strong hatch, very neat fitting.
-
The frame and drop down door do not separate in order to pass the fire test. It would be useful to be able to unhinge the door, the frame fitting would then be an easy one man job and just clip the door hinges back in after. However I am very pleased with the quality and robustness of the unit. I can recommend buying this item, you will not be disappointed.
-
Took me ages to find this but it is just what I needed to replace the one I had broken. Strong and good quality.
-
Excellent product, engineered to do the job, not to match the price (which is excellent), clear instructions, simple fitting. Delivered with the ladder following day, even though advised delivery was 3 working days. Will certainly use Jupiter again.
