How to create unfolding stairs to an attic?

[Dreamaker]

Greeting everybody!
Please, help me with an issue with creating stairs to an attic.
I need not solid, but unfolding one (as on the picture attached).
I'm now created spiral ones, but that's not what I really need.
Thanks for any help!

Hi Alex
The best place to get models is Goggle 3D Ware House.

That's right what I've looked for!

Thank You!

If your proposed project has sufficient space, you may consider using a "super-compact stair", just a thought.

Dear ARCHIJEF2000 - yes, this type of stairs is really good, some even perfect, but in my case I need folding stairs - because it will be used very seldom, maybe twice a year. This stairs to the attic where some equipment will be placed, it will not be living space. So using regular stairs, even very compact, is wasting space on the living flour.

But still have a problem with importing sketchup stairs (version 6) to the project. Spend many hours, but got just error messages.
Can somebody from experienced users explain me, what is the problem?
I can't attach a project and stairs files, just error messages images.
If somebody can help, please provide an e-mail, I'll send you project and stairs files.

Than You again.

It's ok Allen, thanks for you time anyway!

Dear homeview - I use X2 - 12 version.

Are you lloking for one closed?

Good evening Tommy!
Open one is better, It'll be easier to position furniture.
