Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed in a rough opening of 562mm x 562mm. The door is designed for a push-up fit; ensure that there is no electrical wiring or insulation obstructing the path above the hatch. For care, wipe the textured surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent if it collects dust. To maintain the thermal seal, inspect the perimeter gaskets annually to ensure they have not compressed or become brittle over time. If you choose to paint the unit, use a high-quality water-based paint, ensuring you do not clog the hinge mechanism or the seal channel.
