Fire Rated Access Hatches
Promat panels and hatches are approved in a range of sizes and fire resistance, offering flexibility for any type of opening in substrates such as walls, floors or ceilings. They are easy to install and can be finished or decorated to suit the surrounding building elements. The types of fixing for these panels and hatches largely depends on the area of application, frequency of carrying out maintenance, appearance and the weight of the panels/hatches.
Common in most applications, hinged hatches are usually prefabricated in a standard size of 600mm x 600mm. They can also be custom made to specified dimensions, depending on size and quantity. Safety chains are fitted to all panels exceeding 450mm x 450mm in size. Preformed holes in all four sides of the frame are positioned to match metal structures of the ceiling or wall for secure screw fixing.
