The Gypsum Board Access Panel is designed for gypsum board ceilings and walls, providing convenient access to concealed utilities and equipment for inspection, maintenance, and repair.
It is commonly installed where electrical wiring, plumbing, HVAC systems, fire protection equipment, and other concealed services are located above a suspended ceiling or behind a partition wall.
The access panel combines a gypsum board panel with a metal frame, allowing it to integrate naturally with the surrounding gypsum board surface. Depending on the product design, the panel can be finished with joint compound, skim coat, and paint after installation, helping maintain a clean and uniform appearance.
We offer several access panel designs, including recessed, square-corner, rounded-corner, round, and composite gypsum board access panels, with custom sizes available for different construction and project requirements.
