Im thinking this would be easy to alter.
Maybe even get a couple of sets out of one.

Just buy one of those big Yank Monster Trucks, you won't need to shorten it then!

Trouble with the loft ladder is how narrow the treads are. It would be horrible trying to use them like steps. I wonder if you rivet a wider step to each tread without it all falling to pieces under the strain. I've used those style of loft ladders and they aren't built very strong, they flex seriously when you climb up them. Hhhmmmmm...

Thanks for the input being a Yorshireman I wouldn't spend that kind of money without seeing one first so I know it would work.
Having watched a few videos on the tube I'm not convinced

You can get a 'proper' set for not much more than they cost.

(if it was me) and those loft ladders were cheap enough, I'd take one apart, double up those rungs so they were two to a tread see if that worked
