Frequently asked questions
Do I need a fire-rated loft hatch?
If a loft hatch is installed in a building where fire compartmentation is required (for example multi-storey buildings or critical escape routes), a fire-rated option such as 30-minute or 2-hour rated panels helps delay fire and smoke spread between floors. Specific fire rating requirements depend on building use and local regulations.
What size loft hatch should I choose?
There are no formal minimum UK building regulation sizes for loft hatches, but a practical clear opening of around 530 mm × 530 mm is widely recommended for comfortable access and maintenance.
Does a loft hatch need insulation?
Yes — loft hatches should be insulated to minimise heat loss, helping to meet energy efficiency standards such as Part L of the Building Regulations. Proper insulation reduces draughts and can help lower heating costs.
Can loft hatches help with acoustic performance?
Loft hatches with suitable construction can help reduce sound transmission between the loft and living spaces below. Check product specs for acoustic ratings if this is important for your installation.
What frame options are available?
Loft hatches typically come with picture frame or beaded frame options, giving flexibility in installation and finished aesthetics depending on site requirements.
Do loft hatches require smoke testing or airtightness performance?
Some loft hatches — particularly fire-rated or more performance-led models — can be tested for smoke and airtightness performance, which may be beneficial in certain applications and compliance scenarios.
