Case Study
Ecco concertina loft ladder steps up to the challenge
Loft Boarding Scotland and their clients, Ian and Dianne, had a challenging set of requirements. Firstly, they needed a replacement loft ladder that offered safe and easy access to the loft of a period home. Secondly, the new loft ladder needed to be suitable for a high ceiling with only a small loft opening. As such, the compact Ecco loft ladder provided the perfect solution.
“So light, neat and simple to use”
Ian and Dianne
