One hatch just wasn’t enough. We had to do two on this project!
What happens here
After the hinged frame is fully installed and functional, lift it to access the area alongside the hot tub. This revealed compartment provides access to the hot tub's internal components, such as plumbing, electrical connections, or a cover lift mechanism. Using the cordless impact driver, the builder proceeds to drive screws into the internal structure. This final step ensures that the hot tub's components or the cover lifter are firmly secured to the deck or the underlying framing, providing stability and completing the installation.
Goal: Complete fastening of internal hot tub components or cover mechanism
