The DSC-214M Stainless Steel Access Door is a universal, flush-access door that can be installed on any surface and includes a screwdriver cam latch as standard. It is a distinctly superior door for new installations or remodeling.
The exposed flange adds rigidity to the unit and perfectly conceals the rough wall opening. The DSC-214M Access Door now comes standard with removable doors. Flexible and anchor straps are available for installation within the masonry opening. In addition, the DSC-214M access door is available in primed-coated finish.
Type 304 stainless steel is well-suited for exterior weather exposure or interior hygienic locations, such as hospitals, healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical plants, research laboratories, and food processing facilities. Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and durable, requiring very little maintenance. Karp’s stainless steel access doors have a No. 4 satin finish, a general-purpose bright finish with a visible ‘grain” that prevents mirror reflection.
