MacHatch | Access Hatch - JMAC Safety Systems

Innovative

Our exclusive design has been brought to the market to allow safer and easier access between floors during the building process. We’ve ensured we have created a ‘one size fits all’ design for this product, which means it can be installed with any joist layout design during the simple installation process.

Practical

The sizing of our hatch allows materials to be passed easily between the ground and first floor, meaning all workmen on site will be able to carry out their individual tasks quicker, easier and, most importantly, safer.

Simple

Simple by design, simple in use. The Machatch simply slots into the joist design, allowing easy installation and a straightforward work process.
