Access Panel - Part J Regulation 355 x 355mm Plastic Reversible
Professional, heavy duty, plastic, reversible Access Panel. Non-corrosive ABS material, UV stabilised for indoor and outdoor use. Unlike others available, our Access Panels are unique as they are reversible (fit surface or flush) and have no hinges that could break.
Suitable for Part J Building Regs, which specifies the provision of access hatches to allow visual inspection of concealed flue & chimney systems.
Part J Building Regulations state that access should be at least 300 x 300mm and should not adversely affect existing fire, thermal and acoustic provisions. (See the attached PDF by NHBC above or visit the link below direct to the 2010 Part J Regs document.)
If you are unsure of the best panel for your specific job, we advise you contact your Local Planning Authority or Gas Safe. We also supply Fire Rated Access Panels.

Flush Fixing
Mark around the desired position using the appropriately sized access panel frame as a template, checking for plumb or level. Cut hole slightly larger. Slide the access panel frame through the prepared hole, checking for correct size and finish thickness (packing or the use of an expanding foam sealant may be required for thin plasterboard). Apply construction grade adhesive or expanding foam to the backside of the access panel frame in a continuous bead. Slide access panel’s frame through hole, press from the backside so that the lip of the frame is flush with the desired wall surface. Snap access door into place when adhesive or foam is set.
Surface Fitting
Mark around the inside flange of the access panel for the opening. Cut a hole in the wall or plaster board slightly larger than the access panel and check for plumb and level. Apply a thin bead of construction grade adhesive to the inside flange and hold the Access Panel frame into position until set. Snap in the door when set. Remove the access door by simply prising it open with a screwdriver head in the slotted positions.
