Something unglamorous… But necessary! I tackled this tonight while Rob soldered, so I now consider myself a pro access door installer. Ha. So first cut holes into the back of your closet:

From inside the closet:

There were a few even more unglamorous steps in-between but this is the frame, glued in place:

Then snap in the panel. Didn’t Rob do a great job spray painting the formerly white panels matte black with some paint we already had? Sorry for the photo flash in the dust photo:

Now we can access the shut off valves we’re installing for the shower heads and tub filler in the future. We had considered a few locations for the panel but when it came down to it, inside the closet (Rob’s side) was the least visible yet still easily accessible.
