Blank Drywall Plate Hole Cover Wall Access Panel

thingiverse

I had to poke a hole in my ceiling to access a water valve... and then i had to cover it! Overall outer plate diameter size is 120mm and inner hole is 100mm. Make the hole in your ceiling just over 100mm in diameter. This is designed for 3/8" thick drywall (10mm). I've designed this with 2 options. One: Use 2 magnets; one in the center of the wall plate and one in the center of the bar. You can glue them and/or screw them in place. I used 13mm x 2mm magnets. Two: Use 2 screws to screw the bar to the wall plate and wedge it into the ceiling hole. I have not tested this method so use at your discretion.
