Inspection hatch for pressure tiles

The pressure hatch under the tile is used for comfortable access to communications - plumbing taps, pumps, boiler siphons, meters, etc.
Inspection hatches are installed in places such as a toilet room, boiler room, bathroom, as well as in other rooms where there is high humidity.
The main feature is that the inspection hatch becomes completely invisible during installation and facing with ceramic tiles. The main thing is to treat the joints with a special sealant, for example, the Teknoderz EX joint grout is ideal. All this becomes a very important aspect when repairing indoors.

Where is the pressure hatch installed under the tilePressure hatches are universal due to their opening mechanism.

They open with a light push on the door itself, so they can be lined with any material other than tiles, for example wallpaper or simply painted.
As for the material, they can be aluminum and steel. The difference in the choice will depend on where the hatch is installed (a room with high humidity, mounted in concrete or a special structure). Metal hatches are very heavy, so they are installed only in concrete. But aluminum due to its lightness can be installed in drywall structures.

But they also have disadvantages. For example, steel is corroded faster, although it will be more convenient to use, but aluminum is coated with a special powder paint that ensures corrosion-free operation.
Pressure hatches are installed under the tile on a special plasterboard structure. If you choose a large size, you need to additionally strengthen it with a wooden bar. The door should be placed flush with the wall. First, the door is treated with a primer, and only then a special glue is applied under the tile, for example, the fast-hardening glue Teknofay Rapid C1FT.

The purpose of the pressure hatch under the tileThe pressure hatch is installed in the toilet or bathroom and closes plumbing networks, which require periodic access for repair and maintenance.

In addition, it can be used not only indoors, but also outdoors.
It is very important to pay attention to the fact that the hidden hatch model is installed only on vertical walls, so it is better to take other options for the floor and ceiling, since it will not withstand loads.
