Hi all H and D Units Owners:
As you are all aware, the H units and D units (upper level) have a small store area built into the roof space. The current design of your units has access to this attic space via a hatch in the ceiling. You will need a portable ladder (aluminium?) to climb up into the ceiling.
At our last site meeting, Bill the foreman commented on the very decent storage space the loft of our units have, and that he was wondering if we want to install retractable ladders, as it is easy to install them at present.
For your information, the Alva units have an Attic Ladder from Sellwood that retails at $799 on the supplies website ( https://www.sellwood.co.nz/product/regular-range/r28-attic-ladder https://www.sellwood.co.nz/product/regular-range/r28-attic-ladder ). This ladder is very sturdy and suitable for frequent access. Sellwood also have an economic range of Attic Ladders for $399 ( https://www.sellwood.co.nz/product/economy-range/ft30-attic-ladder https://www.sellwood.co.nz/product/economy-range/ft30-attic-ladder ), which should be adequate for the High Street Block, as their attic space is definitely only crawl space and will most likely be frequented much less.
We would expect the installation to cost around $100 (? TBC), and there may be a credit if we replace the Attic Ladder for the existing Attic hatch cover. Can you please indicate if you are willing to spend around $500 extra for an Attic Ladder. If there is enough interest we will file a cost request with S&W. We will confirm with you the final cost and proceed with a variation (private variations) to be paid by owners of each unit.
We would like to proceed wiht this asap as progressing with attic structure for D1 and D2. Please get back to me by Friday with your expression of interest.
At the moment, D5 (Maria/Juan) and D6 (Rainer/Marianne) are interested in having a pull down ladder.
Regards
Rainer and Maria

Hi al, thanks for your responses.
It looks like most of the D / H units would like a ladder to access the attic. We still need comments from: Anne and Min.
I will ask Stefan to request an estimated cost from SW and if we all agree, we’ll proceed with a variation (private variation). I will keep you updated.
Thank you!
Maria
