Single Access Doors

Single doors fit narrow island runs (14–24 in wide) and cost less, yet still give full code-required access to shut-off valves and electrical junctions.

Face the island: if you want the handle on your left hand, buy a right-hinge door (and vice-versa). Choose the swing that won’t block foot traffic.

304 resists rust in most climates. Live near saltwater? Upgrade to 316 (marine grade) for extra corrosion protection.

Typical rough openings are 14–18 in W × 20–24 in H. Always download the brand’s spec sheet and add ⅛ in clearance on all sides.

Yes—select a louvered or vented model. Solid-panel doors seal better but don’t count as code ventilation.

Premium frames include adjustable mounting tabs. Shim behind the flange or backer board until the face sits flush.

Many pro-level doors feature soft-close to prevent slamming and protect island edges; look for it in the specs.

Yes—line the cutout with cement board or metal studs so the flange contacts non-combustible material.

Top brands use silicone perimeter gaskets to block dust and insects. Add peel-and-stick weather strip if daylight is visible after install.

Standard tubular pulls ship with the door; swap in bar handles or LED-lit pulls (fits M6 screws) for a custom look.

Many doors include a cylinder lock; others accept aftermarket cam-lock kits sold on our Accessories page.

Rinse, wipe with mild soapy water, dry, then polish with chloride-free stainless cleaner. Never use steel wool or bleach.

A faint golden hue can appear near 600 °F heat zones—easily removed with stainless polish and won’t affect durability.

Yes—just slide into the cutout, level, and secure with stainless screws (included). A two-person lift prevents scratching finishes.

Measure your current opening; if it’s larger, add a stainless trim kit or filler strips (Best of Backyard stocks multiple sizes).

Fully welded 304/316 stainless resists rain, snow, and UV. Keep hinges lubricated yearly for smooth action.
