    Yes, I looked prior to posting the request.
    I searched on "drop-down stairs", "disappearing stairs", "folding stairs", and "attic stairs", but only found references to things like fire escapes and such.

    If someone has a symbol, or knows of the location of the post Louis made of this symbol, I would appreciate it.

    Regards.

    When placing an attic door, and if you're planning to frame the ceiling, be sure you place a platform hole so it will frame for the attic door. Just a comment.
