Mrs.'Short-hice' is complaining that it's a struggle (physical, not mental) getting up into the drop-down bed... My offer of putting some knots in a length of rope didn't meet with 100% approval so it seems we're looking for a ladder. Only needs to be about 1m20/1m30 long and preferably aluminium (weight) and not too bulky. Been scouring ebay and the like for ages - hen's teeth spring to mind :Sad:

Use a cheapish aluminium step ladder, probably 3, 4 or 5 steps.......you could use them folded to reach the bed and then you have a ladder on board for other uses. Otherwise split them apart and just use the front part for the bed access.......sorted:thumb:

True ... the thought did cross my mind. Split would be best then it could be stowed on the bed when it's put back up. Complete one would be a bit too 'fat' on top of the bedding ... :thumb:

could always be used as outside ladder too.

Yes, this one seems to be the one - easy to stow and multi-purpose so to speak! :thumb:

Ours came fitted but I do have problems with it.

No problems going up but coming down I sometimes get my boxers caught on the ladder. The result is a big wedgie:Sad:

I used an aluminum loft ladder just the right length (i added 2 hooks to go over the bed side to keep it in position (had the old wood ladder for the hooks)

hope this helps
