How do you install the Plastic Access Panel?

What is structural opening and how should I cut the hole for the Access Panel?
Structural opening is the size of the hole in your wall or ceiling. When cutting a hole for the Access Panel 5mm larger than the panel size. For example, when ordering a 600 x 600mm panel, cut a 605 x 605mm hole.

How quick do I receive my Access Panel after ordering?
We offer Free Next Working Day Delivery to Mainland UK. Order before 3pm (12pm on Fridays) to receive your Access Panel the next working day. Otherwise, we aim to deliver within 2-3 working days.
Do you sell Ceiling Access Panels?
All of our Access Panels are dual purpose, this means they can be used in both a wall and ceiling system. If ordering a Fire Rated Access Panel, we recommend checking the fire rating integrity in a wall and ceiling separately. (Some panels are 2hr fire rated in a wall and only 1hr fire rated in a ceiling – This should be stated clearly on the product).
What is the difference between picture frames and beaded frames?
Picture frames are 25mm frames around an Access Panel and the frame will be visible when installed therefore, you do not have to worry about how neat the hole is. The beaded frame allows you to plaster over it, so only the door is visible (and not the frame).
