I took a similar approach before installing blown-in insulation. I took 2x10s about a foot long and nailed to them pieces of plywood extending down about three inches. That combination slips over the existing 2x4 rafters and won't move from side to side. I then placed two of them alongside one another on adjacent rafters. Then I nailed another 2x10 between those two. That created a platform, that was enough to get about in the attic. But to make it even better, I nailed longer 2x10 boards to connect the platforms. I now have a path I can take to almost anyplace in the attic above my 16" of blown-in insulation. To create flooring, plywood sheets could be nailed on top of the platforms.
Thank you for sharing your technique. I appreciate it!
Just what I needed!
Thanks for the video.
Thank you!
no links to what you purchased or at least where and part #'s. how about predrill and use wood screws maybe 4" long
I will try to find a link later to send to you. And you're right, pre-drilling probably would have been the best option. Better screws would have helped too, but I just used the hardware that came included with the panels. Thanks for your message :)
Here's a link to what I purchased: www.homedepot.com/p/Attic-Dek-Universal-4-Pack-Made-for-16-in-or-24-in-On-Center-Joist-Spacing-351804/310357036
@@PanemProject so almost $1000 for this flooring?????
@@agogley The panels are expensive, but they were cheaper when I bought them in 2021
Heavy duty grocery store plastic pallets could serve the same purpose I would think and often you can get them free if you ask and make arrangements. I don't even want to know how much those flimsy plastic things cost that you bought.
i wish they had some lightweight panels for a ceiling drywall is too heavy for 1 man to install.
That would be nice!
You are right. 8x4 is a pain to handle. You might see if 4x4 would be easier.
Did you need a permit from the city for this?
Prior to moving in, I had a conversation with the construction superintendent, and I don't think a permit was required in my area. Installing the deck doesn't change the occupancy of the house which was one of the permit exemptions. Also, I did not cut away any truss member which could affect the structural integrity of the roof. However, I would check with your local jurisdiction to be sure.
