Product description

Introducing the Byson OmniBlend Access Panel - the most versatile, virtually invisible / integrated drywall access panel on the market. The OmniBlend marks no less than a step change in utility and visual aesthetics of drywall access panels.

The OmniBlend is the perfect solution for easy and convenient access to concealed areas in both walls and ceilings.

What makes the OmniBlend different is its unique and innovative hinge design, which enables the panel to be installed and operated equally well in ceiling as well as wall applications. Specifically, it allows the panel to be installed in wall applications in a "door-style" orientation such that it can swing open right-to-left / left-to-right, rather than top down in a "hatch-style" orientation.

Try the OmniBlend for your next interior construction project - we are confident it will become your go-to option for integrated drywall access panels.

Features

  • Seamless integration: The sleek white powder-coated finish is paintable, and with a slim profile frame, blends seamlessly into any room decor. Customize the panel by painting it in a colour that matches your interior.
  • Unmatched versatility: Can be installed in ceiling "hatch" and wall "door" style applications
  • Durable Construction: Sturdy aluminum profile, with a 12.5mm (0.5" compatible) thick waterproof gypsum board
  • Convenient and secure access: The OmniBlend features a detachable hinged push lock door, providing easy access to concealed areas in walls and ceilings.
  • Smooth operation: Thanks to the Mini-latch spring clips, the door leaf opens and closes effortlessly with a simple press, saving you time and effort ensuring quick access to the hidden space behind it.  
  • Safety features: Safety cord secures the detachable door to the frame, to prevent risk of falling objects when opening the panel (especially in ceiling applications).
  • Versatile functionality: This access panel is suitable for a wide range of applications, including accessing plumbing, HVAC, electrical systems, and other hidden installations, making it a versatile addition to any space.

Installation guidance

  1. Measure neck size of access panel
  2. Cut hole on wall +5mm larger than neck size
  3. Remove the door from the panel frame
  4. Fit the frame to the hole, and secure in place temporarily (eg using a clamp)
  5. Fix frame to the drywall easily by drilling drywall screws through the drywall directly into the aluminum panel frame. Recommended to install minimum 1 screw per side - predrilled holes not provided, screw locations can be tailored to site conditions. Screws not included     
  6. Replace the door on the frame
  7. For applications where panel is to match the surrounding wall, finish the door as with normal drywall finishing, ie mudding, sanding and painting 

Note: The sizes listed are defined as "Opening Size". This is the size of opening that is available for access once the panel is installed.
