Overview
About Fire-rated access panels
Access panels give maintenance access to valves, dampers, cables and plumbing behind fire-rated linings and inside shafts.
They are tested in the wall or ceiling type they will be installed in (for example EN 1634-1 or EN 1364-2, UL 10B / ASTM E119 assemblies, AS 1530.4) and must be latched and closed in normal use.
Sizes, lining type and orientation (wall or ceiling) are part of the tested scope.
Key benefits
- Maintains the fire separation
- Tested for wall or ceiling use
- Lockable and self-latching versions
- Matches board, panel and masonry walls
