Default Storage Boarding An Insulated Loft

A number of folk here have, over the last few years, asked about the
way to go about boarding an insulated loft floor to provide storage
(me included!) and there have been a number of very useful suggestions
depending on depth of pocket and specific situation.

One of the methods asked about has been use of legs placed on the
joists to provide an elevated location to fix loft boarding. However,
these always appeared to be too feeble for anything but the lightest
storage. I came across a fairly new product called Loft Zone Store
Floor at the Ideal Home Exhibition and must say I was impressed with
the design and stability of the it. Not that I need it as I went the
rockwool, light board, 'Celotex' and top board (reused) route.

As always, wood uprights are much cheaper. Products like these make no sense.
