Premium Range Plasterboard Access Panel

The Premium Range Plasterboard Access range provides protected fire rated access solutions through plasterboard ceilings for access to building engineering services. The robust 50 mm profile produces a quality solution that can be used for fire rated or larger plasterboard faced access solutions.

The panels consist of a reinforced plasterboard faced pivoting or hinged door tray and frame with square drive operated lock, finished in powder coated white. The double edged door tray construction offers greater rigidity enabling the door to withstand a greater degree of abuse avoiding any subsequent potential damage to the finished face. The panels are fitted with the ‘Slik’ invisible keyhole mechanism dispensing with plastic caps that highlight the keyhole position and draw unwanted attention to the panel.

The door tray encapsulates a layer of 12.5 mm plasterboard with a simulated beaded edge to the frame and door tray acting as a key for the tape and joint or skim coat. These panels must be fitted prior to wet trades so the metal beaded frame parts of the door and frame can be incorporated into the ceiling or wall membrane in the same way as a conventional stop bead.
