Karp Concealed Access Doors

Concealed Access Doors are the latest trend in construction. Architects and building owners like the new look of concealed seamless access doors where you can hardly see them without knowing where they are installed.

What makes an access door appear to disappear ?  Make it with the same materials as the ceiling it is being installed in, gypsum.

Currently there are two methods to achieve this stealth-like invisibility. You can have a gypsum drywall insert  or make the door out of gypsum and fiberglass.
