Best Basic Attic Stairway Insulation Cover
The Duck Brand Plastic Attic Stairway Cover doesn’t have an R-rating and doesn’t insulate as well as some other products. It does provide some insulation, though. And it works great for anyone who wants to prevent attic insulation and other debris from blowing downstairs.
This is a tent-style cover similar to the Owens Corning product, but it weighs about five pounds less and offers more clearance. Setup is easy: Take it out of the box, unfold it and set it in place.

Best Box-Style Attic Door Insulation Cover
If you were to DIY your stairwell cover, you’d probably come up with something similar to the Battic Attic Stair Cover. It’s basically a box that fits over the stairwell. You can pack it with insulation to get an R-50 value.
This product costs twice as much as other stair covers, and you may have to purchase extra insulation. It comes with weatherstripping to make a seal against the door frame. It’s what you need if your local building code requires the cover to have the same R-value as the rest of the attic.
