Correct positioning and installation are important for creating a safe, neat and practical access point.

Before installation:

• Confirm the exact product dimensions.
• Measure the required ceiling opening carefully.
• Check the ceiling construction and support structure.
• Select a suitable location with adequate access above the ceiling.
• Ensure the opening does not interfere with electrical wiring, plumbing or structural components.
• Provide appropriate framing or support where required.
• Keep the unit square and level during installation.
• Secure the trap door according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Check that the access panel opens and closes correctly after installation.

Professional installation is recommended where necessary.

Choosing the Installation Position

The trap door should be positioned where there is sufficient clearance above the ceiling for practical access.

Before cutting the ceiling, check for:

• Roof trusses
• Ceiling battens
• Electrical cables
• Plumbing pipes
• Insulation
• Ducting
• Other concealed building services

Never cut or modify structural roof components to accommodate a trap door unless the alteration has been properly assessed and approved.
