Fakro LWK 3 Section Folding Wooden Loft Ladder
The Fakro LWK Komfort 3 Section Folding Wooden Loft Ladder is a practical and reliable way to create easy access to your loft. Designed with everyday comfort and safety in mind, this folding wooden ladder combines a sturdy construction with useful insulation features and a clean, modern appearance.
The three-section design folds neatly away when not in use, while the innovative hinge mechanism moves the hatch away from the ladder as it opens. This helps maximise headroom and makes the ladder particularly convenient to use in residential and work spaces.
Easy Installation and Stylish Design
The LWK Komfort is supplied ready for straightforward installation and features a smooth white finished hatch that blends neatly with most ceiling finishes. The insulated hatch not only gives the ladder an attractive appearance but also helps improve thermal performance around the loft opening.
A handrail is included as standard, providing additional support when climbing up and down the ladder. The ladder also operates smoothly and quietly, making regular loft access more comfortable.
Safe and Comfortable Loft Access
Safety is built into the design of the Fakro LWK Komfort. Non-slip treads provide a more secure foothold, while the three-section version also includes stile ends to improve stability during use.
The ladder has a permissible load capacity of 160kg and features a 3.6cm thick hatch with 3cm of insulation. A peripheral seal around the hatch helps reduce unwanted draughts and heat loss, contributing to a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.
Thermal Performance
The insulated hatch has a U-value of 1.1 W/m²K, helping to limit heat transfer through the loft access point. This makes the LWK Komfort a useful choice where maintaining good insulation is an important consideration.
The ladder complies with EN14975 standards and is available in versions suitable for different ceiling heights. The 280cm ladder requires a minimum ceiling height of 232cm, while the 305cm version requires a minimum ceiling height of 246cm.
