VSH-150 Aluminum Hatch-Standard Series

Versa-Hatch’s Water Reservoir Hatch is designed, built, and approved for use with municipal and commercial water systems. The bulb gasket and lock-down swing bolts work together to create a water-tight seal, keeping water in and contaminants out. A 4-inch curb raises the opening above standing water.

A positive locking hold-open arm locks the hatch open at a 90º angle to provide safe ingress and egress. The lift-assist gas spring reduces worker effort when operating the hatch and the spring uses water-system-safe food-grade oil. A padlock clip allows for added security.

All hardware is fabricated from Type 316 stainless steel for maximum durability.

Versa-Hatch’s Water Reservoir Hatch is designed and engineered to provide years of reliable, trouble-free service.
