Selo Via Metal Access Panel - Picture Frame - 600mm x 600mm

The Selo Via Type 04 (600mm x 600mm) single-panel metal access panel with a visible picture frame surround, constructed from 1.2mm Zintec steel to provide secure, lockable access to concealed services such as valves, stop-taps, and electrical switches in walls or ceilings.

The defining advantage of the picture frame configuration is installation speed. Unlike concealed frame systems that require plastering, taping, and jointing to achieve a flush finish, the Via Type 04's solid steel flange sits directly on the wall or ceiling surface. This eliminates multiple trade coordination and drying time, allowing you to complete the installation and move on. The panel is powder-coated as standard—ready to accept on-site paint to match surrounding décor without compromising the factory finish. For service cupboards, plant rooms, or back-of-house areas where aesthetics are secondary to access and durability, this is a faster, more economical specification than concealed alternatives.

The Type 04 is fitted with a budget T-key lock, concealed by a white plastic collar and plug. This delivers adequate security for non-critical service access applications at a lower hardware cost, making it the logical choice for multi-unit residential, commercial fit-outs, or refurbishment projects with tight budgets. The robust 1.2mm Zintec steel construction resists warping and impact damage from repeated opening, and the removable pivot plate with pin or continuous piano hinges ensures long-term operational reliability.

Apply Lorient Intumescent Sealant, or any intumescent acrylic mastic tested to BS 476 Part 20/22, BS EN 1363-1, or BS EN 1634-1, nominally 5–10mm wide sealing the gap between the frame stop and the supporting construction.
