Roof Hatches

Roof Hatches

BILCO roof hatches provide safe and convenient access to roof areas by means of an interior ladder, ship stair or service stair. A variety of special sizes are also available to provide an accessible way to install or remove large pieces of equipment from a building. All products feature engineered lift assistance for easy one-hand operation.

Ladder Access

The easy, one-hand operation, to the fully open or closed position, provides the user the security of having one hand firmly on the ladder at all times. Ladder access roof hatches are available in galvanized steel, aluminum or stainless steel construction and can be supplied with dome covers for natural day-lighting.

Ship Stair Access

Service Stair Access

The larger opening provides an easily accessible means for equipment to be installed or removed from a building. Equipment access roof hatches are available in steel, aluminum and stainless steel construction and in one standard single leaf size [Type F, 48” x 48” (1219mm x 1219mm)]. Special single leaf sizes (Type SS) are available and are recommended for widths up to 5’0” (1524mm). For larger openings, specify double leaf construction (Type D).
