I own a 3rd fl. townhouse condo with a roof hatch/vertical wall-mount ladder inside my unit. Is there any DOB or condo board limitations that can be imposed on the replacement of the ladder for a different model. I am looking into clever collapsing stairs and attic ladders to make roof access easier. What is the legality of changing/replacing the hatch, altering its size, or moving it. Any assistance is appreciated. I haven’t found any info in the condo lease specifying my rights concerning this hole in my ceiling that accesses the condo’s roof.
