Product Description
24" x 24" ADC-SM-BL Surface Mount with Angle Frame Floor Door – Bilco
Budget constraints may limit spending for access points, while utility vaults or less visible locations may prioritize functionality over aesthetics. Flush-mounted installations may require additional work like concrete cutting or precise adjustments to ensure door levelness with the floor. The 24" x 24" ADC-SM-BL Surface Mount with Angle Frame Floor Door – Bilco is a cost-effective solution for underground vaults without flush mounting.
The ADC-SM-BL is a secure, cost-effective access door for underground vaults that don't require flush-mounted installation. It features an internal flange for quick and safe installation, a gasketed overlapping cover, and a lift assist mechanism. The door has an automatic hold-open arm and concealed stainless steel hinges for tampering. You can add optional padlock hasps for extra security. Made from sturdy aluminum and stainless steel, it comes standard with a gas strut lift mechanism and slam lock for easy operation.
