The base on which the hatch installed must be sturdy and stable. In drywall bases, for reliability, it is desirable to use reinforced UA profiles or ordinary profiles reinforced with wooden beams. Tying plasterboard bases to the main walls is required.

The panel must be securely fixed in any general construction method, for example, in a plasterboard structure – screwed with metal screws, and in concrete, brick or block masonry – with dowels or anchors. Gaps between the panel and the base are more than 5 mm filled with construction foam. When fixing, it is important that the untiled surface of the panel door coincides with the main tile laying field around the hatch.

Before laying the tiles, the hatch door must be moderately loaded in any way in order to select all the gaps in the hinges.

Laying tiles on the wall where the panel installed it is advisable to start with the panel. Glue the tile on the door, wait until the glue has completely set, check for opening and closing. Then you can tile around the panel without using crosses on the bottom and sides of it. The gaps along the perimeter of the door at the panel must be at least 1.5 mm.

To avoid difficult opening and closing of the panel it is not recommended to fill its perimeter with silicone. To disguise the seams along the panel it is recommended to paint the ends of the tiles along the outer and inner contours in the color of the grout with a suitable paint or a mixture of grout on a colorless varnish.
