BA-E-50HZ Ladder Roof Hatch – Aluminum – MDA Approved

Accessing rooftops for routine maintenance or equipment installation shouldn't be a headache, but standard hatches often create bottlenecks. They're too small for larger tools, awkward for HVAC components, and can slow down simple jobs. When working in high-wind coastal areas, you also need something that can handle hurricane-force conditions without becoming a liability.

The BA-E-50HZ Ladder Roof Hatch - Aluminum - MDA Approved gives you that extra space when needed most. With its slightly larger opening, this hatch makes moving equipment up and down easier, whether replacing a compressor or carrying maintenance tools to the roof.

It's built tough with 11-gauge aluminum and has Miami-Dade County and Florida Building Commission approval for use in high-velocity hurricane zones with large and small missile impact. You know it'll hold up when the weather gets rough.

Meanwhile, the compression spring operators make opening smooth and effortless, while the automatic hold-open arm keeps it secure while you work.
