A metal access panel used to create a serviceable opening in drywall, plaster or masonry walls and ceilings. The frame is set into the rough opening and finished against the surrounding surface, while the hinged door swings clear so valves, cleanouts, dampers, junction boxes and other concealed equipment stay reachable after the wall is closed in.

Access doors of this type are built from formed sheet steel with a welded or riveted frame, a concealed or piano-style hinge and a cam or screwdriver-operated latch that holds the panel flat and closed. A factory prime coat is typical, allowing the panel to be painted to match the adjacent finish.

The square opening size suits most rough-in locations where a hand and basic tools need to reach the equipment behind the wall, including shower valve bodies, shutoff assemblies and duct access points.
