Jones Stephens A05-027 Plastic Snap In Access Panel, 1/2-Inch x 6-Inch, White

Installed very easily. Decent construction, not really rigid but not flimsy. I am using it for a wall not a ceiling.If I needed a second I would buy this one again.The only thing I wish it had was hinges, but this was the only one I could find that was the size that I needed. However in all honesty I don't need to access very often so it really isn't an issue.

We have a skylight "tunnel" in which there used to be an open grate to the A/C air handler in the attic. Living in the South Texas heat, it's not a good idea to have a wide open space to your attic. We had the bathroom where the skylight is located redone a couple of years ago. The contractor sealed up the entire area with drywall and left a small panel cover so the A/C technician could access the breakers on the air handler if needed. Well, we had some air trouble a few weeks ago and guess what? The tech needed access to the entire side of the air handler - nice big cut into the beautifully finished drywall. I researched his panel on Amazon and was happy to find this perfect size for this kind of job. The ceiling and skylight tunnel is painted white, so this was a good match. I don't know how well it would hold paint if you were to paint it (smooth plastic) so I recommend leaving it white regardless of location or wall color.The panel comes with NO instructions (not that they are truly necessary) but I'll tell you how to install it: 1) remove the panels (there are two on the inside of the frame) 2) Hold the frame onto the wall where you want to install the panel and trace the inside with a pencil. Do not worry about the location of studs, the frame is not deep enough to bump into wall studs. 3) Cut the drywall with a utility knife. 4) Once you have an exact fit (you'll need to shave drywall here and there after you cut your pencil outline) place a thick bead of caulking around the back of the frame. 5) Push the frame into place being sure to press all around to form a good seal from the caulking. Not only does the caulk form a seal, it helps the frame adhere to the wall once it has dried. 6) Snap in the two cover panels.

I could not find a metal access door to fit a wall project I had, and this was all that would fit. I was wary of a plastic panel, but it turns out that it works just fine.Using the suggestion of another reviewer, I just used a small bead of caulk/glue and attached it directly to the wall. It is holding well and the two panel halves snapped easily into place.If you cannot find a metal access panel this size for your project, give this a try. It is not air tight, but will work for many things.

I get these for my homeowners for a better price here than I can locally and they are a great product!

As expected

Just what I needed to have access to my shower plumbing. Saves me from having to cut into the dry wall again and again and no dry wall repair. (The wife found it acceptable, that's the real test.)

Really big. As advertise, works great. Use for the back of shower and can get to everything. Lots of space to work out of and paints okay too

I'm not wowed by this product, but it serves the purpose it was purchased for. The doors pop out for access, but you can see the seams when they are put back in place.

This product was easy to install - I only have one good eye and still managed to install it! Fits over the hole in my wall and provides access if ever I need to.

It was easy to install snd finished the access nicely but made of plastic so would not be good in an area where it might get bumped

Excellent panels for easy access to main water cutoff valve that is inside a closet, a second panel was purchased to access to bathroom and washing machine cutoff valves that were relocated after home was retrofitted with all new PEX piping during renovations. Easy to install. Very pleased with the look and functionality.

We used this product to cover an opening in the ceiling which was cut in order to access a water shut off valve. Very easy to use and looks good.

Nice big trap. Easy to install. Two pieces.
