Cendrex Access Doors and Panels
Cendrex access doors give a clean, closable opening in walls and ceilings for valves, shutoffs, junction boxes, and cleanouts. The lineup includes flush universal doors with an exposed flange in pin hinge, piano hinge, and keyed versions, a hidden flange door, and AHD-GYP doors with a drywall bead flange that tape and mud in. The FLE-W Flexisnap uses an adjustable frame and magnetic closing. Cendrex also offers a fiberglass-reinforced gypsum door and fire-rated insulated and uninsulated doors.
What to Look For
- Flange style. An exposed flange covers the cut edge. Drywall bead and hidden flange doors finish flush with the wall.
- Hinge and latch. Piano hinges spread load along the door. Keyed latches keep the opening closed to the public.
- Fire rating. Use a fire-rated door where the wall or ceiling assembly calls for one.
- Size. Measure the framed opening and the access you need before you order.

Cendrex FAQ
Which Cendrex door is best for a drywall ceiling?
The AHD-GYP flush door with drywall bead flange finishes into the ceiling like the rest of the board, so only the door seam shows. If you want a door you can paint without finishing a flange, the CTR-00 hidden flange door is another option.
When do I need a fire-rated access door?
When the opening goes through a fire-rated wall or ceiling. Cendrex offers the PFI-00 insulated and PFN-00 uninsulated fire-rated doors. Check the rating your project plans require.
