Starting your own business can feel overwhelming, but joining a trusted franchise makes the process much simpler. At More Than Loft Ladders, the franchise journey is designed to take you from first enquiry to launch with clear, supportive steps. Here’s how it works.

Step 1: Your Initial Meeting

Everything starts with a discovery meeting. You’ll meet the More Than Loft Ladders team to discuss how the franchise operates, what’s expected of you, and what you can expect from them. This meeting is about confirming mutual fit and seeing whether the brand’s model aligns with your goals.

Step 2: Second Interview

If both sides are keen to move forward, the next stage is a second interview. This gives you a chance to ask direct questions about the investment, daily operations, and the support provided. It’s an opportunity to clarify what being part of the franchise involves before taking the next step.

Step 3: Discovery Day

Next comes the Discovery Day — an essential part of the process. You’ll meet existing franchisees, visit active territories, and get a real feel for the day-to-day business. It’s a hands-on way to understand the work involved and the potential rewards. This meeting helps confirm that the partnership is the right match for both you and the company.

Step 4: Signing the Franchise Agreement

Once you’re ready to commit, you’ll move to the formal Franchise Agreement stage. This legally binding document sets out your rights and responsibilities as a franchisee, your territory, fees, and brand standards. Signing it officially makes you part of the More Than Loft Ladders network.

Step 5: Paying the Deposit

After signing, you’ll pay your initial deposit to secure your exclusive territory. This confirms your commitment and allows the onboarding process to begin. From here, you’ll work closely with the head office team to prepare for launch.

Step 6: Franchise Training and Support

Before opening, you’ll complete a comprehensive training programme covering all aspects of the business — from customer service and quoting to installation and marketing. The training is designed to give you confidence and practical know-how so you can hit the ground running.

Step 7: Becoming a Franchisee

Once your training is complete, it’s time to launch your own More Than Loft Ladders business. You’ll start trading under a recognised brand backed by national marketing and proven business systems. With ongoing support and access to expert advice, you’ll be ready to grow your business in your exclusive area, offering professional loft ladder installations, boarding, insulation, and lighting solutions.
