Pull Down Attic Stairs or Attic Access Ladder

Using the attic for storage of off season items is a great idea.  It gets it all off your main floor and out of your closets.  Once you have done your sorting into donation, garbage and keepers and leaned everything out to what you really need and want to keep, you now have to get it into the attic.

If your house is anything like ours, they didn't build the opening too big and you need a step ladder to get under it and then hoist yourself the rest of the way.  This can get tricky, and I found these really cool pull down attic stairs that are designed for small openings..

Pull Down Attic Stairs
These attic stairs can fit openings as small as 22 x 31 inches.  They fold accordion style back up into the ceiling and behind the present attic door.  Since many houses are being built with smaller access holes this is the perfect way to get up into the space to store things.  All you need is enough floor room to pull them down on the perfect angle as you can see in the picture above.

Easy to use Attic Access Ladder
You can get these online to fit different sized attic hatches (just click the link to find out more).  This is much easier than getting out the step ladder (which you may not even have if you are in a townhouse or condo) and trying to hoist yourself up.  You can use this pull down attic stairs and simply walk up with your storage bins.  (Just make sure you use bins that will go through the attic hatch!).

If your attic is not setup for storage just yet you can get systems that make it easier for you to walk up there without fear of falling through the floor and shelves that fit into the trusses.  You can read more about that here.  Start utilizing some of that wasted space and keep your living area clear of clutter and calm!
