Data Sheet

Intro

Designed to fit into any type of 2 hour fire rated wall system, allowing easy access into the cavity/void where regular maintenance to services is required to be carried out.

Description

This panel is designed to fit into the structural membrane of jointless plasterboard wall systems. It is supplied with a beaded frame to allow for tape and jointing on site and comes complete with a fully removable flush metal door. It is inserted directly into a pre-cut hole through the face of the wall prior to wet finishes being applied. This is a 2 Hour Fire Rated Access Panel which has been tested to B.S.476: Part 22:1987.

Construction

Constructed from 1.2mm and 1mm thick Zintec Steel, with a polyester powder coating of matt white Ral 9010, 20% Gloss (other colours available upon request). The panel is also available in Stainless Steel for use in corrosive areas (quote using product code and ref SS). The removable flush metal door is sealed at the back with a fire resistant board and smoke seal. A continuous metal hinge is used to fix the door to the frame, and is secured using a 3 point locking system. Alternative lock types can be provided upon request.

Dimensions

Any sizes can be manufactured to order within maximum and minimum dimensional constraints. For further information please contact our Technical Sales Department.

Fitting

The access panel should be screw fixed through the side of the panel frame, and will require independent bracing and support which is sufficient to secure and also allow safe opening of the access panel within the wall system. When installing the access panel, the actual size of structural opening in the wall needs to be at least +5mm greater than the overall panel dimension e.g. structural opening for 600mm x 600mm will be 605mm x 605mm.
