Loft Leg - Pack Of 24

The primary benefit is to create usable, elevated storage space in your loft without compressing your existing insulation, which helps maintain your home's thermal efficiency and potentially reduce heating costs.

Loft Legs are designed to raise your loft floor by 175mm, providing sufficient space for up to 270mm of uncompressed insulation underneath.

They are compatible with various types of loft insulation, most commonly mineral wool or quilt insulation, ensuring it can remain uncompressed beneath the raised floor.

Yes, Loft Legs are mechanically tested by independent experts and are designed to be strong and durable, suitable for typical domestic loft storage items.

Basic DIY tools, such as a drill, appropriate screws, and a measuring tape, are generally all that's needed for installation.

Yes, Loft Legs are manufactured in the UK from recycled polypropylene, adhering to ISO9001 standards.

Loft Legs are typically installed directly onto the joists before laying new loft boards. If your loft is already boarded and insulation is compressed, you would generally need to remove the existing boards to install Loft Legs and then re-board.

Ensure all Loft Legs are securely screwed into the joists and that the loft boards are correctly and firmly fastened to the tops of the Loft Legs. Check for any damaged or improperly installed legs, replacing or re-securing as needed.

Verify that the Loft Leg height (175mm) is appropriate for your insulation depth. If insulation exceeds 270mm, you may need to add an additional layer of Loft Legs or consider alternative solutions. Also, ensure the insulation is evenly distributed and not bunched up underneath the legs.

Make sure you are using screws of the correct length and gauge for your joist material. Pre-drilling pilot holes can significantly ease installation, particularly in harder wood joists. Always ensure the joists themselves are sound and free from rot or damage before installation.
