Hello,

I'm thinking about designing a pocket fire door entry in the ceiling to gain access to a habitable room loft conversion. I thought this could be a good alternative to boxing in the stairs.
Anyone ever heard of this idea or foresee any problems with building control with a concept like this?

Thanks

Alex
