I built my bilco door steps out of pressure treated. The whole thing lifts right out. ( Makes loading the basement with firewood much easier.)
Back when i was doing boiler installations we sometimes used a wrecker. All we had to do was open the bulkhead door, remove the stairs, and lower the boiler into the basement. It saved a lot of grunt - n- groan. That was especially so with the steel boilers because you couldn't break them down like a cast iron jobbie.
Same thing when we were removing the old boiler. Just lifted it out ....
