Default Attic drop-down door

I seem to be up in the attic many many times a week and doggone it,
the 'spreader blade' wore out and is now bent.

Easy enough to push back in place but it soon bends again.

Place in town has replacements...so next time I'm in the area I'll get a
new set.


To replace... I see that I will have to first remove the spring and the
best way to do that is with the door closed to minimize tension.


What that means is I will have to close myself up in the attic to do this.


Told my wife she better rescue me it I screw something up and can't get
out of the attic.


If my postings here disappear for a week or so, please send out a search
party.


My house will be easy to spot as my wife will be having a HUGE celebration!
