For over 30 years, Darcy Joinery has solved Manchester’s trickiest loft access challenges. As a family-run loft staircase specialist, we craft bespoke designs that blend space-saving innovation with strict building regulation compliance. Whether you’re converting an attic into a living space or need storage access, we create staircases where others say “it won’t fit.”
Why Homeowners Trust Our Loft Staircases
Darcy Joinery stands apart through craftsmanship and commitment. With three decades of expertise, we guarantee building regulation compliance while tackling “impossible” spaces. Our unique ability to replicate historic or fire-damaged staircases preserves your property’s character. Crucially, installations cause minimal disruption – most are completed in just 2-3 hours by our skilled craftsmen.
Space-Solving Staircase Designs
Fixed Loft Stairs
Ideal for daily-use lofts converted into offices or living spaces, fixed staircases provide permanent, comfortable access. Designed to resemble traditional staircases, they often feature carpeted treads for quietness and warmth.
Spiral & Tread Designs
When floor space is severely limited, our spiral staircases offer stylish solutions. Their compact twisted designs add architectural flair while meeting strict safety codes, perfect for period homes or modern conversions.
Pull-Down (Drop-Down) Systems
For storage lofts accessed infrequently, pull-down stairs maximize space efficiency. Crafted with durable hinged segments, they fold compactly against the ceiling when not in use.
Disappearing Staircases
The ultimate space-savers, these innovative designs slide completely into ceiling coves. Nearly invisible when retracted, they’re ideal for minimalist interiors where every inch counts.
Craftsmanship Tailored to You
Choose from premium woods like oak, pine, or sapele, or blend materials with stainless steel handrails or glass balustrades. We’ll replicate original features for heritage properties or create bold contemporary statements.
