Instruction

1. That you had safe ladder, and on it it was convenient to walk, height of steps has to be 15-18 cm, and width of their horizontal part (tread) – about 30 cm. For attic and basement stairs width of tread increases to 36 cm, and height of steps practically does not change (17 cm).

2. The first that needs to be made is to make number of predesigns. After measurement of space which is available calculate total number of steps, their height and also width of stair. Let's say you need to calculate parameters of ladder 144.78 cm high: Define quantity of steps. Just divide total height into height of one standard step: 164.8/18 = 9.1. Round result to whole, that is, to nine; Now determine height of steps for your specific case. For this purpose divide height into total number of steps: 164.8/9=18.3. It turns out that you need ladder with nine steps having height of 18.3 cm.

3. The next stage is preparation of the basis. It is possible to make it in several ways. If ladder small, it is possible to use the fastest way: at first pencil by means of ruler note places of cuts, then get rid of superfluous circular saw. At last, make sure of what all of you have made and have noted exactly.

4. When the basis is ready, it is possible to continue work. Fix and fasten steps to the basis one by one. At the end you can also fix vertical part of each step, but it is optional.

5. If you do not want to potter with tools and tree, buy already ready ladder especially as the choice of ladders in shops disposes to it. However if in you desire to make ladder has woken up, then safely start working. If you in it the beginner, make at first something simple, like the ladder at porch of the house consisting of three steps. Over time the skill will come to you.
