From providing quick access to plumbing and wiring to sealing off compartments from the elements, the right access hatch protects your vessel and simplifies maintenance. We stock a huge range of deck hardware, including high-quality access hatches designed for the tough Australian marine environment. You’ll find everything from heavy-duty commercial models to lightweight inspection ports, all built to perform season after season.
When your deck is constantly exposed to heavy foot traffic, spray, and punishing conditions, you need hardware that won’t fail. Our heavy-duty and watertight hatches are engineered for maximum durability and protection.
Featuring robust walk-on aluminium construction and reinforced black acetal models, these hatches provide a secure, flush fit that keeps water out. They are the ideal choice for commercial vessels or any boat owner who prioritises strength and absolute water resistance.
With options including large square hatches for engine bay access and secure oval designs, you can trust these marine access hatches to withstand the toughest challenges, giving you peace of mind when you’re far from shore. Their solid build quality naturally leads to considering lighter, yet still durable, alternatives for different applications.
For many trailer boat and recreational vessel owners, a balance of strength, weight, and grip is key. This is where our lightweight aluminium and tread plate hatches shine. The textured tread plate surface offers excellent non-slip footing, a critical safety feature for any wet deck.
These hatches are strong enough for regular use but won't add unnecessary weight to your boat. They are perfect for accessing fuel tanks, bilge pumps, or storage lockers without compromising on structural integrity.
You can find classic designs with simple removable lids or models with sturdy J-hinges for easy operation, providing a practical and long-lasting solution for everyday boating needs. These are great for general access, but for those spots you need to get into frequently, a dedicated inspection hatch is even better.
Regular maintenance checks are essential for keeping your boat in top shape, and our inspection hatches make the job simple. Designed for quick and easy access to specific components like wiring junctions or plumbing valves, these hatches save you time and hassle.
Choose from simple, non-skid removable lids that pop out in seconds or convenient hinged round hatches that flip open for immediate access. Available in clean white or classic finishes, they blend seamlessly with your deck while offering crucial functionality.
Getting the function right is only half the battle; a new hatch also needs to look like it belongs on your boat. That’s why our range includes a variety of shapes and profiles to match your vessel’s design.
Low-profile hatches, available in rectangular, round, or even trapezoid shapes, sit almost flush with the deck for a clean, trip-free finish. High-profile models offer a more traditional look and can provide extra clearance.
For added versatility, you’ll find specialised designs like access hatches with integrated sliding roofs and vents, perfect for improving cabin airflow without letting in the rain. This attention to design detail allows you to find a hatch that not only fits the hole but also complements your boat’s aesthetic.
What about the size? An incorrectly sized hatch is a constant source of frustration, leading to poor seals, difficult operation, and a sloppy finish. We take the guesswork out of finding the right fit by offering an extensive selection of sizes.
Whether you need a small 375x270mm hatch for a compact inspection point or a massive 685x685mm model for major component access, you’ll find it here. Our range covers dozens of common and specialised dimensions, including popular sizes like 525x460mm and 600x355mm, making it easy to replace an old hatch or install a new one.
With such a wide variety of measurements available, you can select the precise dimensions needed for a clean, professional installation on any part of your vessel.
Your boat deserves the best hardware, and our selection of access hatches is built to deliver performance, durability, and a perfect fit. With the right hatch, you can improve safety, simplify maintenance, and protect your investment for years to come.
