How to use

Cut an opening in the drywall to the specified 300 x 400 mm dimensions and insert the frame, aligning it with the surrounding surface. Secure the frame according to standard drywall mounting methods, then finish joints and seams with tape and plaster or joint compound.

Usage recommendations

Install the access door at an accessible height and avoid mounting directly behind heavy fixtures. Ensure screw heads are countersunk and joints are properly finished to achieve a flush look. For installations near water or high-humidity locations, verify compatibility with local building codes and consider additional moisture-resistant finishing materials.
