Designed around your home
Opening, ceiling height, circulation and finish all guide the design.
BEFORE ANY PRODUCT DECISION
Why no two Bcompact projects are the same
Every space is unique
No two homes are the same. Your dimensions influence how your folding stair or ladder is designed.
Comfort matters
Angle, tread depth and rise all affect how comfortable your stair feels every day.
Designed around your home
We don't ask you to fit one of our products. We design around your architecture.
Beautiful access
Access between floors should complement your home instead of compromising it.
Here's how we'll help
01
Understand your space
Upload photos, measurements and describe your space.
02
Recommend the right design approach
Our project consultants assess your space and recommend the best solution.
03
Personalise the solution

04
Build it for your home
Once approved, your custom solution enters production.
Two ways to create better access
Every custom project begins with your space. From there, we usually guide homeowners toward one of two design approaches based on comfort, available floor space and how the access will be used every day.

What is the difference between a folding Stair and a folding Ladder?
Stairs (available in both Fixed-Top-Step and Full-Fold Design): Custom-sized, designed with a lower angle (50-60 degrees) and featuring our patented bi-folding aluminium handrail and optional locks & sprung gate (for fixed top step design only). Best suited for mezzanines, lofts, or high- use spaces where a stair-like solution is required. • Ladders (available in both Fixed-Top-Step and Full-Fold Design): Custom-sized, steeper angle (60-70 degrees) with fewer treads and no automatic handrail (fixed aluminium handrail and locks optional). Ideal for attics, tight storage, and access points with limited run length where a compact solution is required. Additional: Difference between Fixed-Top-Step and Full-Fold Design: • The Fixed-Top-Step Stair/Ladder design features a fixed top tread with additional cross support for enhanced stability. This top tread remains in place when the stair/ladder folds away, providing a solid anchor point but maintaining a partial structure on the wall. Incontrast, the Full-Fold design eliminates the fixed top tread by using a bolt and catch plate mechanism, allowing the entire unit to fold seamlessly along its full length. This creates a sleeker, uninterrupted façade when stored
