Access Doors and Panels
The last item on the submittal and the one that holds up the ceiling inspection.
OUTWEST1995Five Colorado yards.
One outfit.
02
Fire rating is not a detail
An access panel in a rated assembly has to carry its own rating and its own label. An unrated panel in a rated wall fails inspection every time. If the wall is rated, tell us, and we will get you the labelled unit.
03
Where the panel lands
The panel — Sized to the opening, rated to the assembly it breaks. This page
The wall around it — Board, bead, and compound to close it in. Drywall & Finishing
Or the grid it drops into — Sized to the module so it does not need a field cut. Ceilings & Grid
Firestop — If the panel breaks a rated assembly, the rating has to be restored. Waterproofing & Sealants
Four parts, and the one that fails the inspection is the rating. Send the assembly and the rating; we will send the panel that matches both.

Common questions
Ask the counter.
How fast can you get a custom size?+
Depends on the manufacturer and the rating. Text us the dimensions and we will come back with a real date, not a guess.
Do you stock fire-rated panels?+
Yes, at every branch. Odd sizes and higher ratings are a special order.
The branch makes the call
