Access to the Sales Room loft

Step side boards Assembling the steps The loft steps
Access to the Sales Room loft, used as a storage space, has been improved by replacing
the existing ladder with round rungs by a new one with flat steps made for the task.

The loft space is crossed by a large wooden beam making access beyond the beam very difficult. To improve the access, two sections of steps have been constructed with one placed each side of the beam in the manner of a country stile. After going over the stile, boxes of stored items can be retrieved by pushing them under the beam on the loft floor.

A number of 'grab rails' have been also installed in places to provide additional safety.
