Rectangular Deck Hatch 27 x 37.2 cm (UV-Resistant ABS)

This small rectangular hatch (27 x 37.2 cm outer dimensions) is perfect for closing off smaller openings on board – such as inspection ports, access to seacocks, small lockers, or technical compartments on your boat. The UV-resistant ABS plastic construction ensures the hatch withstands prolonged sun exposure and marine conditions without deforming or aging. The lid is designed with a non-slip relief pattern, meaning you can confidently step on it when moving around the deck or cockpit. Despite its compact size, this hatch boasts all the features of larger models – a full 180° swing for easy inspection or servicing of equipment beneath it, and concealed fasteners that contribute to a smooth, professional look after installation.

Though small in footprint, the hatch provides excellent water tightness. A flexible rubber gasket is integrated into the frame, which compresses tightly when the hatch is closed to prevent water ingress, even if the deck is awash from waves or rain. A single sturdy handle allows the lid to be opened easily, and the design includes the option to install a lock for those cases where the compartment’s contents need to be secured (e.g., valuables or tools). The hatch can be mounted horizontally or vertically, depending on your needs – for instance, on a flat cockpit floor or on a vertical bulkhead in the bilge. It’s offered in standard colors (white, gray, beige, black) to match other deck hardware. Because of its universal size and solid build, this model is a popular choice for small to mid-sized vessels where space is limited but quality cannot be compromised.

• Typical Installation Sites: Suitable for inspection openings to fuel and water tanks, access to hull fittings (seacocks, transducers), rudder post inspection points, small storage cubbies, and other tight spaces on the boat
• Compact Size: The outer frame (27 x 37.2 cm) covers a cutout of about 19.8 x 29.8 cm (approximate opening size). This standard small size makes it easy to integrate into boats with limited installation area
• Benefits: Allows quick access to important service points (valves, filters, sensors) without tools, while keeping the deck flush and safe to walk on
• Reliability: The ABS construction and quality gasket ensure the compartment below stays dry. Even with frequent use, the hinges and handle remain functional, and replacement parts (if ever needed) are readily available from the manufacturer
