Installation is simple since there are no hinges to mount. It lifts up and slides away with ease because it weighs just 10 pounds. The wood frame stands 12 inches high and works well in keeping your attic insulation from falling through the opening.

The triple gasket design has one gasket where the trim meets the ceiling; another where the door face meets the trim and finally, the other where the top of the door meets up with the frame.

The Attic Access Hatch Door R-42 can be used with roof trusses that are 24 inch on center, or in between ceiling joists that have 16 inch centers.
