This is an aluminum scissor-style attic ladder that pulls down from the ceiling to give access to a loft or attic. It fits a rough opening of 30 x 30 in (75 x 75 cm) and reaches a maximum vertical height of 10 ft. It has 12 steps.
The ladder is made of aluminum using a mechanical forging process with a titanium-magnesium alloy. The finish is applied by high-temperature spraying, and the surface is hard, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant. An anti-slip device sits at the bottom, and a retractable pull rod is used to operate it.
The ladder has a load capacity of 1100 lbs. In an impact test, a 16-pound sledgehammer deformed it by only 30 degrees without breaking it.
