Access
Sound-absorbing panels with a robust grid system, for use where frequent access is required.
Designed for corridors or areas with service installations in the ceiling void where frequent access is required.
The Access range of ceiling systems consists of Access panels and the Connect Access grid, designed for corridors or areas with service installations in the ceiling void where frequent access is required. The system is arranged in rows, with a 23 mm space between individual panels, and is mounted wall-to-wall, with or without margins.
In large areas, the Access system can be installed in rows to create a grid pattern.
Components of suspension system:
- Wall brackets for wall junctions and for one-piece panels across the full width of the corridor.
- Double-carrier profile for adjacent rows of panels.
- Transition profile for junctions with suspended ceilings, Access frieze panels or plasterboard margin.
- Perforated suspension bars and brackets.
- Space between panels: 23 mm (side to side), 20 mm between panel and transition profile at each end.
- The sound-absorber panels are framed on all sides with a white, painted steel channel.
Features and benefits:
- The tiles are manufactured from high-density glass wool.
- The visible surface has an Akutex™ FT coating, and the back of the tile is covered with glass tissue.
- The simple suspension system allows the panels to be easily lowered from either side, allowing the panels to drop down with a hinge effect.
- The panels can be opened fully in long 'lanes' for servicing and other work.
- There are no cross-suspension components.
Application:
Designed for corridors or areas with service installations in the ceiling void where frequent access is required.
