Snap-In Access Door 6" (150mm)
This snap-in access door is just simply better than the commercially available screw-in versions. The door is removable and can be installed in any orientation. Not only does that mean you can change the orientation after it is installed, but you can easily remove the door when working through the opening. This model includes a collar to cover the edges of the cut wall for a cleaner installation and appearance. A back-side collar locks the front onto the wall without screws (but it can be screwed in as well if you choose). The two halves sandwich the wall with a ratchet-style click mechanism every 1/8” (3.2mm) to accommodate all common wall boards from 3/8” to 3/4”. A spring system on the Back Collar allows for a firm grip and adjusts for variations in wall thickness due to paint, paper, plaster, etcetera. Screws can also be used if desired.
The Snap-In Acces Door has a “lockable” latch to prevent accidental opening. And, the entire assembly snaps together without tools. Not to mention, you can print it at home!
This version provides an access opening of approximately 150mm x 150mm (6” x 6”) square. Cut a (155mm) 6-1/8” square opening in your wall.
I have also posted a larger 8" version which is available here... https://than.gs/m/1162904

Love the design (and the amount of little features you manage to put in all your designs). Printed one, but had some issues. The "outer frame" kept warping and the outer wall kept detaching from the bed when printing using PETG. Added a brim and it printed fine.
The "finger cup" is completely loose when in the unlocked position and falls inside the wall when closing...I printed it with the other part that failed and removed it before it finished, my bad!Oh, ok, thanks for the feedback. Can you tell me what printer you are using and did you use my suggested slicer settings?
update: turns out I was printing it together with the frame and thought it was finished by the time the rest failed, but turns out that wasn't the case. reprinted it and now it fits (maybe a little bit too tight even). Printer: Prusa MK4S, using your suggested settings.
Awesome, thanks for letting me know.
Outstanding idea!
I've got a Elegoo Neptune 4 MAX printer, 420 x 420mm print bed. I'd like to see if it can print a larger version of this. Also, have you attempted to make a round access door or port. Possibly used on kayaks. I've got a limited size of 5".
I have just posted a larger version of this (200mm versus the original 150mm). I think going to full size for a large bed may require some tweaking to the frames. But I am going to post some larger spring-fit-style panels—those I can make really large (I think).
