the guy we were asking to install it suggested we extend the hatch
That isn't a bad idea if you have the space. A bigger hatch and better ladder make the loft space much more usable.

Ours is square. I'd say it's best to go as big as is practical to make life easier.

Measured mine - it's about 600mm wide by 560mm long. No problem with getting the ladder in and out but limited to what I can fit through!

Brilliant, thanks all - it's the hatch length I'm worried about because that measurement seems to be missing on the screwfix site (et al). We've got bags of room above the ceiling, it's just the hatch itself that feels dinky and the guy we were asking to install it suggested we extend the hatch!
