36" x 36" Ladder Access Roof Hatch - Steel - Bilco

E-20 36" x 36" Ladder Access Roof Hatch – Steel Bilco 

 

Bilco's E-20 is a single-leaf roof scuttle that allows personnel to access the roof and interior of the building quickly. This roof hatch is ideal for installations where service personnel use a ladder to safely access the top to remove or install smaller equipment.  

 

Why Install E-20? 

Dependability: Bilco's ladder access roof hatches have reliable and durable components. Its 14 gauge (2 mm) G-90 paint bond galvanized steel helps the roof hatch to stay highly functional, especially during strong winds or storms. Bilco constructed it to last longer, and the E20 equipment roof hatches' high-quality materials only require minimal maintenance.  

 

Automated Locking Mechanism: It has a reliable locking mechanism that effectively secures, holds, and opens the leaf from accidentally closing, which is an important safety feature to consider to prevent injuries during egress.  

 

Easy Operation 

Its innovative and simple design and advanced locking mechanism allow personnel to conveniently and swiftly open and access the roof hatch.
