Re: “On yer house plans, do you have a garage attached to the house?”No. The garage is part of the basement. The main floor is over both.

My main reason for wanting access to the attic is for laying mouse bait. Rodents are a constant problem out here, and you need to be able to access the attic perimeters to effectively deal with them. The drop-down stairs are an interesting idea, but I think my attic has too many rafters to make it a place I'd often want to enter. It's not tall except down its center and it's hard to move around in. I'll take a closer look at it the next time I'm at the property.

I have a question..
On yer house plans, do you have a garage attached to the house? Is it alongside it at one end?

IF hat is the case, what I did with mine was to install one of those folding stairways in the garage. Lots bigger than one of those access panels ya can't get nothing thru very big.. And then you have to be a gymnast in order to get in and back out...

I love my folding spring loaded stair opening and have used it a bunch, especially when running duct work and easy access to add those extra 15 inches of insulation on top of the four or five that was already there..

Just wondering if that is an option for ya....
