MOUNT MACEDON WINERY
Background
Nestled in the heart of the Macedon Ranges in Victoria is Mount Macedon Winery, a picturesque country-style mountainside retreat. With sweeping views of Mount Macedon and the ranges, this scenic and character-filled locale is the perfect destination for a country wedding, corporate event, family gathering or a wine-tasting weekend away.
AM-BOSS were approached by the venue to install a pull-down attic access ladder to accommodate easy, on-demand access to the mezzanine level.
Challenge
In keeping with the venue’s unique, country-style architecture and interior design, the mezzanine level features joists positioned just under 600mm from each other. As a result, the solution had to work within the constraints of the space to ensure the narrow beams would preserve their original look and feel and wouldn’t be structurally compromised.
In addition, the selected product had to comply with relevant requirements for a commercial application – and provide the desired stability and safety profile.
Solution
In response to the brief, the AM-BOSS team conducted a site assessment to take the necessary measurements. Based on those, they manufactured and installed a bespoke solution that conformed with the venue’s specific requirements.
The product AM-BOSS installed was the Model 2345 from the signature Access-Boss series. The collection has been designed specifically for commercial applications. As such, it boasts an impressive 150kg load rating at any given point, incorporates trouble-free spring balancing and comes with a generous 5 year warranty. At the same time, to ensure optimum visual outcomes, there are no visible screws or
hinges on the ceiling panel, making it the perfect choice for commercial interiors where both performance and attention to detail are essential.
To sit neatly between the joists, the bespoke Access-Boss pull-down ladder was manufactured to feature a special hatch size. Complete with a standard handrail for increased safety at a ceiling height of 2,310mm, the unique solution was created to work with an opening of 1,100mm by 590mm – fitting it perfectly between the rafters.
Combining performance, safety credentials, a clean, paredback aesthetic and tailor-made dimensions, the AM-BOSS product was an outstanding solution for Mount Macedon
Winery’s specific needs.
