Five Access Panel Solutions for Every Budget and Deadline
Contractors and architects often choose BAUCO for our expertise in customizing access panels for challenging situations. For example, we’ve created access panels that cover fire hose spools, give access to plumbing for maintenance or inspection, and hide mechanical systems in a steam room. We’ve even mounted a panel directly to a lift system for large projector maintenance! All without compromising the integrity of the design.
The BAUCO Plus II, our most versatile product, comes in standard sizes from 6” x 6” to 24” x 36” and can be customized for access of any size. A custom sized example would be a 32”x 62” ceiling access panel – large enough to remove an HVAC unit if necessary. The BAUCO Plus II has concealed mounting frames and hardware and can be finished with same materials as the wall or ceiling, allowing it to disappear into its surroundings, whether paint, wallpaper, tile, or millwork.
Designed primarily for large access openings in walls, the BAUCO XL provides the same virtually invisible finish as other BAUCO drywall access panels, with a wide range of custom sizing options. With a heavy-duty aluminum frame, robust concealed hinges and latches, and the option to incorporate the minimalist BAUCO Air return air grille, the BAUCO XL is ideal for discreet access to vertical HVAC units in applications like condos or hotels.
The BAUCO Air, our aluminum linear bar air return grille, finishes flush and frameless with the surrounding surface for a clean minimalist effect. It can be integrated into other BAUCO drywall access panels as needed or installed independently into any drywall wall or ceiling. And the BAUCO Rondo provides virtually invisible access in drywall ceilings that have curvilinear design features like the University of British Columbia Arts Student Centre, with its dramatic circular motif.
Factory-direct pricing makes all of our products affordable, but if you’re on a tight budget, the BAUCO Softline low-profile sheet-metal access panel is particularly cost-effective. The Softline has a low-profile frame that hugs the surrounding surface, minimizing shadows and sight lines while still being functional and durable.
BAUCO offers detailed quotes within one business day and we have an average production lead-time of four days. We ship globally, with standard two-day courier delivery in North America. Our flexibility in meeting customer needs, even in novel situations, sets us apart in the industry, and a full 85% of our work is repeat business.
If you need to provide essential access to building systems, without compromising the integrity of the design, BAUCO’s virtually invisible products will do the job.
