Attic Floor Stilts

Loft storage stilts are used for creating a raised storage area inside a loft whilst not compromising on thermal efficiency.

You also need to ensure that the joist spacing is adequate. The stilts lift the loft boards the extra height to enable the loft insulation to remain in place and not compress it putting pressure on the ceiling. Standard joist spacing for the installation of attic flooring materials is 16 inches on center oc meaning the distance from the center of one joist to the center of the next joist is 16 inches. Easy to fix down on the joists and easy to attach the loft board to.

Quick easy to install. Even those with little diy skills or time can now easily elevate the boarded section so that their loft can be used for storage whilst still having 270mm of loft insulation. Attic joists that are made from 2x8s may be acceptable for building your attic floor but because every room is variable there are no absolutes. The prefabricated plastic panel squares that fits either 16 or 24 on center joist systems are secured with screws to the attic floor joints to create flooring space for storage or a stepping stone pathway to get to hard to reach spaces.
