16×16 in Steel Access Door

This Tough Guy 5YL96 access door provides a flush-mounted entry point for wall or ceiling cavities. The uninsulated steel panel measures sixteen inches by sixteen inches and features a powder-coated finish for durability. A hidden-pin hinge keeps the appearance clean while a screwdriver-operated cam latch secures the door. It is intended for maintenance access in residential or commercial buildings.

Rough Opening 16¼×16¼ in

The unit requires a rough opening of sixteen and a quarter inches in both height and width, giving minimal clearance around the frame. Eight mounting holes of one-quarter inch diameter accept standard fasteners for a secure fit. The door handles routine inspection and service tasks but offers no thermal insulation or fire rating. Buyers needing insulated or fire-rated panels should select a different product.

Flush Mount with Cam Latch

Installation is straightforward: the frame fastens through the pre-drilled holes and the concealed hinge allows the door to sit flat against the surface. The cam latch releases with a common screwdriver, freeing the panel without specialised tools. No wiring, ductwork or additional hardware is included, so installers must supply appropriate fixings for the substrate.
