JL Industries FDP Fire Rated Insulated Access Panel Plaster Bead

The JL Industries FDP series is the fire-rated, insulated access panel for plaster walls and ceilings: the concealed frame with plaster bead keys into the plaster, leaving only the door visible. Like the rest of JL's fire-rated line, it is UL Listed and Labeled at 1-1/2 hours for wall installs, self-closes and latches from 90 degrees open as NFPA 80 requires, and carries a 2 in mineral wool core. Pick your door size above.

Where a fire-rated panel is required

An access opening cut into a fire-resistance-rated wall or ceiling needs a listed, self-closing access door, or the opening compromises the assembly's rating. A listed panel is valid only for its listed assemblies; confirm the assembly and rating with your AHJ. Fire door assemblies are installed and maintained under NFPA 80.

Other sizes and configurations

Larger sizes, other materials, heavier gauges, and lock options are factory orders, and the flush steel FD series covers the standard exposed-flange install. Ask us for a quote on anything not listed.
