48" x 48" BA-WTFD - Watertight Floor Hatch Cast in Place 300 LB./Sqft.
There's no room for flimsy construction or second-rate materials when dealing with floor access points in high-traffic or high-moisture areas. You need something that can take on heavy foot traffic, resist water intrusion, and still operate easily. Weak latches, corroded hardware, and panels that are a pain to open don’t just slow things down—they cost you time, money, and peace of mind.
That’s where the Watertight Floor Hatch Cast in Place 300 lb/sqft 48" x 48" comes in. This panel has become a go-to solution in the industry for its reliable performance and straightforward installation.
Why Should You Use the 48" x 48" BA-WTFD?
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Designed with a reinforced 1/4" aluminum diamond plate door, this hatch can handle a load of 300 lb./sq.ft. It’s built for strength and stability, making it ideal for spaces where floor access must support frequent or heavy use.
- Built-In Corrosion Resistance: The aluminum frame and door, paired with stainless steel hinges and hardware, make this panel a smart choice for environments where moisture is a concern. It stands up to corrosion, meaning fewer replacements and maintenance headaches over time.
- Watertight Protection You Can Count On: With an integral anchor flange and a channel frame featuring a 1 1/2" drainage coupling, this panel is designed to be cast directly into concrete. That gives you a sealed, watertight fit that protects your space from water, dirt, and debris.
- Simple, Smart Operation: Thanks to stainless steel compression springs and an automatic hold-open arm, lifting and securing the hatch is easy—even with one hand.
