I now have had 6 panels, both standard plastic and custom sized metal. First class products and good prices. Also excellent communication from the company. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Superb customer service.
The panel we ordered arrived damaged, I emailed customer service and within an hour I had a phonecall apologising and offering a replacement or refund. It was clear that this isn't a regular occurrence from the questions which were politely asked about the packaging etc. You don't know how good a company is until there's a problem, I was so impressed with how they dealt with this issue, and importantly I now know it's safe to use them in future.

Fabulous service!!
Needed a couple of access panels in new bathroom. Found this company on line and put in my order on a bank holiday Monday.
Despite the site banner saying the office was closed for the day, my access panels were sent out same day and received next day.
Panels are just what I was after as well. All good. Many thanks

Will use them again, good phone service
They dealt with a situation really well: there was a delivery issue (item didn’t arrive next day as promised, nor the day after) but at the same time our needs changed as a contractor had told us the wrong dimensions. Thankfully they coordinated the return of the item from depot and full refund whilst I was able to reorder from scratch and received my delivery the next day.
We have quite a few more access panels to get including possibly some bespoke ones, so I will consider using these guys again because they pick up the phone and were able to actually deal with issues quickly and directly.
