Questions
About crawl space access door installation
Can you make a bigger opening?
Often yes, if the structure allows it. We check what is behind the wall and plan the opening to keep the foundation sound.
Does the door need to be sealed?
In a sealed space, yes. A gasketed, insulated door keeps outdoor air from bypassing the work done inside.
