Pacific VP120-FH Fire Rated Floor Hatch -/120/60

 

The Pacific VP120-FH Fire Rated Floor Hatch consists of one or two proprietary fire rated non-load bearing panels resting in a pressed steel frame. The steel frame is fixed to a concrete floor.

The access hatch permits the installation of relatively large plant into the ceiling cavity or removal of that equipment for maintenance purposes.

Floor hatches are outside the scope of NZS 4520 and are therefore not labelled.
