Our line of Vetus Planus yacht hatches have satin sheen anodized aluminium frames, with 75 mm. corner radius and "dark smoke" colored acrylic lid of 10 mm thickness. A special friction hinge allows all Vetus Planus yacht hatches to remain open at any angle up to 180 degrees. These Vetus Planus Hatches are CE classified: A II, which means to say that they are designed for ocean use and can be fitted on deck. Each planus escape, deck or ventilation hatch can be supplied as an option, with an anonized aluminum counter flange and a mosquito screen.

Our Part # VTSPLA32L | Vetus Part # PLA32L

Features:

• The acrylic has a thickness of 10mm and is dark smoke coloured
• The hatch can be opened from either inside or outside
• The hatch can be shut completely watertight, or secured with a small air gap to allow permanent ventilation
• An internal locking mechanism ensures the hatch cannot be opened from outside when the boat is left unattended. This operates in both the closed or ventilation positions
• The low external profile ensures that ropes, e.g. running rigging on sailing boats, cannot foul on the handles
• These handles are available separately and can be used to upgrade older VETUS Libero and Planus hatches
