So-Pac Plastic Access Hatches

Tough, durable and affordable NZ made access hatches. 

As of 2024 over 120,000 of our 4000 series So-Pac Access hatches have been sold worldwide and continue to be market leaders for quality.

Our hatches are moulded from ESA plastic, a stronger, more durable and high UV resistant grade that will not become brittle with age.

Hatch lids open 180° and when closed they completely conceal the countersunk fastenings.

Lid shape deflects water away from the “knife edge” seal that ensures hatches are weathertight when installed on rigid flat horizontal and vertical surfaces.

Contoured handles twist open and close heavy duty “dogs” to create a positive latch. With a low profile of just 13mm above deck they look good in the surroundings of high quality boats of all sizes whether constructed in aluminium, composite or timber. Intrusion below deck is 18mm.

Proudly designed and manufactured in New Zealand. CE approved to ISO 12216:2023 

Small, medium and large rectangular hatches are available in white, light grey, dark grey and black. Small round access hatches also available in white, dark grey and black.

Easy to install, their quality and CE approval makes them 1st choice of trailer and custom boat builders in NZ and in numerous markets offshore.
