WD.PF/FR90.I60.48dB is a metal faced riser door designed to fit into a structural membrane of a joint-less plasterboard wall system. It is for walls only.
The door gives 90 minutes fire integrity and 60 minutes fire insulation from both sides, together with a 48dB acoustic rating, for service risers where both fire separation and sound reduction are needed.
It is manufactured with a 25mm wide picture frame and locked with a 3 point locking system as standard (other locking options are available upon request). The panel is powder coated RAL 9010 30% gloss as standard (other RAL colours are available upon request).
90 minutes fire rated for integrity and 60 minutes for insulation (EI9060) from both sides, up to 2400 x 900mm in a wall application, tested in accordance with BS EN 1634-1:2014 + A1:2018 and BS EN 1363-1:2012.
Acoustic rated to 48dB, tested in accordance with BS EN ISO 10140-2:2010.
The WD.PF/FR90/I60.48DB is manufactured from zintec steel with a 1.2mm thick door and a 1.5mm frame. The door leaf is hinged on a full length piano hinge.
Measure the structural opening width and height in millimetres. The structural opening must be at least 10mm larger than the panel size (the back of frame size). For example, a 600 x 600mm panel size requires a 610 x 610mm hole size.
Independent bracing or support may be required to take the weight of the access panel.

The choice depends on your project requirements:
We offer multiple Access Panel types. Our FlipFix easy installation range are the most popular due to their revolutionary and unique FlipFix mechanism.
The standard colour of our access panels is RAL9010 white however, we can powder coat the access panel in almost any RAL colour required. An alternative option is for us to dust prime the access panel which allows the consumer to paint the panel themselves.
Beaded frames are frames which can be plastered over, whereas picture frames is retrofit and no plastering will be required.
A dual purpose access panel is an access panel that can be installed in both a wall or ceiling. Most of our stock panels are dual purpose however, we don’t recommend installing the plastic access panel in a ceiling.
Plasterboard doors with beaded frames are used when you need to plaster over the door and the frame, so all you will see is the outline of the panel in the wall or ceiling. This looks very neat and tidy.
Picture frames are 25mm frames around an access panel and the frame will be visible when installed therefore, you don’t have to worry about how neat the hole is. The beaded frame allows you to plaster over it, so all you see is the white door and no frame.
A riser door is designed to safely conceal vertical service shafts (risers) in a building, housing things like electrical wiring, plumbing, and data cables, while providing secure and easy access for essential maintenance, inspection, and repair work. They also play a crucial role in maintaining fire safety compartmentation and acoustic performance within the wall system.
You’re able to use glue to secure the plastic access panel in place.
The time to install our access panels is dependant on which access panel you’re referring to. Our FlipFix range can take approximately 10-15 minutes, whereas standard access panels can take up to 30-45 minutes.
Structural opening is the size of the hole in your wall / ceiling.
The best example would be if you’re ordering a 600 x 600mm Access Panel, then you will need to make the hole in the wall or ceiling (the structural opening) 605 x 605mm. (5mm larger than the panel size).
Other panels from the same range, with different frame types, fire ratings or sizes.
