A retractable staircase comprising a first side stringer and a second substantially parallel side stringer connected to a plurality of steps. The first side stringer is fixedly attached to a wall and the second side stringer is pivotally movable about the first side stringer between an extended position, where the steps lie substantially horizontally between the stringers, and a retracted position where the steps lie substantially vertically between the stringers. The retractable staircase also includes a collapsible handrail and a gate that are interconnected with the side stringers and the pivoting steps so that when one of them is moved, the other two move substantially simultaneously.
