Why Stira?, Because we manufacture and install some of the safest and strongest loft ladder systems available so they feel like a set of stairs underfoot (as opposed to a ladder).
Our Stira Folding Attic Stairs systems come in a range of sizes to suit every home, from 2-storey houses and bungalows, to 100 year old cottages and Georgian houses. Since 1982, we’ve seen it all.
Unsure of your ceiling height? No problem, simply choose the base Stira system (2350-2500mm) which is the most common size for Irish homes. We will book you in for your survey assessment appointment, at which we’ll confirm the best Stira loft ladder system to suit you and your property. Any variation in cost can be settled on the day.
All our Stira installers carry a range of sizes with them to suit Irish homes. This means that in the majority of cases you can have your loft ladder system installed on the same day. Installation takes approximately 90 minutes.

Should one of our standard range Stira systems not quite meet your requirements, we will still have a solution for you. Whether you have extra high ceilings, current access in a tight or awkward place, or a preference for a larger trapdoor, our installers will provide quotations for all bespoke requirements during your survey assessment appointment.
Because we are manufacturers means we can produce bespoke Stira loft ladder systems, ensuring you will have the perfect folding attic stairs system to meet your specific needs every time.
Please note: We can also install your Stira loft ladder system in a completely new location/room if required. This involves creating a new opening. This is often the only option if your current opening is in a tight spot and can’t be adjusted or extended as required.
We can also install into lath and plaster ceilings. Both these services incur extra cost which our surveyor assessor will confirm with you should they be applicable.
