How to Cut an Attic Door Over Garage for Storage
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2021
- Adding overhead attic storage to my garage by cutting my own access. I only cut it to 36 inches instead of 54 inch standard for pull down attic ladders. The width was standard between 24 inch framing.

thank you for posting this. I needed it
Thanks for sharing, my project was to put floodlight and need a clean install using access to my garage attic, you gave me an idea , I need to see first if it is worth storing anything in my attic.
Damn you went all out.
The house DIY videos seem to really pop with the views. Good stuff I will be doing similar thing in my new garage
Yea added that extra junk space above is key to reduce clutter. Much easier than my second floor with the blow in insulation. I built a elevated deck between the joists but the second floor is hot and itchy due to insulation.
Goo Gators 🐊!!!!! Great 👍 video .. I just decked the attic so like what you did !!
Yea I love the little bit of additional storage space above. Check my other video about finding another dead space storage under the stairs from garage. That’s a game changer too for all our Christmas decorations.
Welcome back bro
Need more video for lexus is 🥰🌹
Wow this was a great video. Thanks!
You saw I cut a smaller hole. But if you plan to install a pull down ladder, it needs to be longer since the ladders are all standard size at HD and Lowes.
Really like your videos. You deserve more subs!
Thanks. Working on it for years.
Thanks for the video. Why did you put down insulation? Are you planning on having a/c in the garage, or you have it already?
Yea I have AC. There a video from a year ago where I did the minisplit. This was only side not insulated. The 2 car portion is insulated since there is a second floor above. The 3rd car part is separate with a roof over it.
Also after a year of using the space, I should have did it 54” and put a pull down ladder, but not a big deal as it’s low and my A frame ladder is about 5’ away to use. But the convenience may have been worth $200 ladder.
@@TunerwithKids Hey man, I appreciate your answers. It does make sense to insulate in this case. I am in FL too and the garage is impossible to work in. But I need to get the storage space above it figured out, like you did, so I can open more room. I am in Orlando BTW. Thanks!
Definitely add some plywood between the framing so you can walk on it and store boxes. My old house had high roof above the garage so I was able to stand up above and stored all my junk and Xmas boxes up there.
Thank you I feel more confident to do it myself then to pay someone else 200
I hope i am wrong but the insulation you added should have been with the barrier towards the garage and fibers towards the plywood. That would reduce the heat in the garage. wouldnt that allow the heat to get into the ac room and the cold air to escape into the attic faster?
The batt insulation still works the same. The paper helps to handle it and roll it.
The faced side should always face the heated side. It’s a vapor barrier, moisture from humid inside air can condense and become trapped in the insulation during cold winter months. This can lead to rot and mold. But if it doesn’t get cold where you are then you should be ok.
The paper faced insulation isn’t for making it easier to handle, it’s a vapor barrier.
Do you need a permit to create an attic entrance in the garage?
No. It’s not a livable space.
You should blur your car license plate in your videos.
Doesn’t really matter. That’s like the guys that do that for their FB post.
Enough with these Big a s s house 🤣💩🤣
Jesus get to the point
Jesus appreciate that someone is showing you how to cut a hole in your ceiling.
