Installing Residential Attic Stairs in the Princeton, NJ Area

Most people don’t think about the different types of attic stairs available to them. However, there are several different kinds of attic stairs. Each is suited for certain situations, and when selecting the attic stairs to install for your home, it’s helpful to know the difference between each type. Our friendly handymen will discuss the different kinds and help you make the right choice when they meet with you to plan your installation. Some of the most commonly used attic stairs include:

• Folding Attic Stairs – This is one of the most commonly used types of attic stairs because of its simple mechanism and reliability. Folding attic stairs pull down and unfold in several hinged sections (typically three or four sections).
• Telescoping Attic Stairs – When installing attic stairs in a tight spot, telescoping attic stairs are a useful choice. Instead of unfolding, these stairs slide into place and extend to the floor.
• Scissor-Style Attic Stairs – With chic style and an advanced design, scissor-style stairs unfold in an accordion-like fashion. This gives scissor-style stairs the ability to work perfectly in attics with small or oddly shaped openings.
