Planning a safe exit for tiny home lofts

I am looking for a way to escape my tiny home loft quickly during an emergency. My sleeping area is up high and I am worried about what would happen if the main floor was blocked by fire. I need a solution that is easy to use but does not take up too much room in such a small house. But finding something that fits a compact space is proving to be difficult. I want to make sure I have a solid plan in place for my safety. And I am curious to see if other tiny house owners have installed specific hardware for this reason.
 
You might want to consider using a compact fire escape ladder that hooks onto a window frame since it folds up small and can be stored under the loft bed without getting in the way.

You could install another loft window that opens wide enough to climb out sso you have a second way to escape if the main floor is blocked.
