Black Alloy Boat Escape Hatch – 575mm Square Deck Hatch with Inside-Open Handle by MaXtek

The MaXtek Black Alloy Boat Escape Hatch blends rugged durability with a sleek, modern design, purpose-built for both leisure cruisers and commercial workboats. This 575mm square deck hatch provides a reliable, weatherproof access point that enhances safety, ventilation, and onboard comfort without compromising the vessel’s clean lines.

Why this hatch stands out

• Robust, corrosion-resistant build: Made from matte black marine alloy, it stands up to salt spray, UV exposure, and year-round marine use while maintaining a low-profile appearance.
• Inside-Open functionality: The integrated handle is operable from inside the cabin, enabling quick escape in emergencies, efficient ventilation, or convenient access during routine checks.
• Weatherproof seal for calm in rough seas: A marine-grade gasket delivers a tight seal against wind, rain, and spray, helping keep the cabin dry and comfortable even on challenging passages.
• Optical privacy and light control: The black-tinted acrylic glazing filters glare and reduces unwanted visibility from the outside, while still allowing natural light to filter in.
• Low-reflective, heat-aware finish: The matte black finish minimizes heat absorption and glare, helping keep the cabin cooler during long stints at sea or on sunny docks.
• Dual-purpose design: Beyond emergency egress, it doubles as a ventilator and light access point to improve onboard comfort during long voyages or while docked.

Specific dimensions and installation notes

Exterior frame size: 575mm x 575mm, designed for robust deck or cabin-roof mounting with a clean, integrated look.
