Access Panels and Grilles for drywall.

Your project needs access panels
Your projects require the highest level of surface finishes, but you also need to provide access to mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and AV services. Sometimes you need to hide them in plain sight. Access openings can be very small or very large, odd in shape or require specialized hardware. Sometimes you need to maintain acoustic barriers, apply speciality finishes, or install into a speciality substrate. Perhaps your application requires a one off design. We work out the solutions with you. Our products aim to minimize the disruption to your finishes and to provide the widest possible range of customization.
BAUCO has the solutions
Our architectural access panels for drywall ceilings and walls are virtually invisible and fully customizable. Our models deliver a clean finish and proven functionality. All hardware is concealed and consists of robust aluminium profiles and strong galvanized steel components. Our panels integrate with drywall allowing the panel to sit in the same plane as the surrounding wall or ceiling. All BAUCO products are available factory direct for industry best lead-times, and quick and accurate fulfillment.
With you every step of the way
From your first phone call or email to successful project completion, BAUCO is fully engaged. As both manufacturer and distributor, we supply and support the project to completion. Our proven process of customer service results in superior product consultation, creative and tested solutions, short lead times, and outstanding delivery logistics. Without surprises and without messed up days.

We take the time to understand your challenge, iterate and test possible solutions, communicate ideas with custom drawings, and can provide samples for verification. When you are ready to proceed, one of our Product Specialists will provide a quote within 24-hours. As required, we support the detailed quotations with freight and lead-times, mock-up room samples, submittal drawings, and installation instructions supported by tutorial videos. We consult the way you want to be consulted: phone, email, video conference. In certain circumstances, we will even come to your site.

More than half of the panels we ship are customized. Extra-large, extra-small, L-shaped, round, multi-leaf, specialty board inlay, security hardware. The virtually invisible, clean finish, superior sound barrier and functional access remain the same. BAUCO panels can be factory finished to be paint-ready – to save you time!
