Turtl Crawlspace Entrance Door Installation in Cedar Mountain, NC

This is something that you do not get to see every day because it is not an item we get to install very often! While most homes have a crawlspace door above ground level, some are below ground level and therefore have an entrance like you see above. We use Everlast Doors which create an airtight seal around the entrance when the access points are above ground, but when the access points are like this, we have to use a Turtl.

The "before" photo shows off the crawlspace entrance before any products had been installed. As you can see it is a very crude entrance, with only a sheet of metal to cover the hole. This allows a lot of outside air to get inside the crawlspace, which can cause the relative humidity to increase and moisture to collect on surfaces in the crawl space.

The "after" photo shows the installed Turtl crawlspace entrance over a year after being installed. As you can see, it is certainly doing its job. While a little dirty, it still provides a tight seal that does not allow outside air to get inside the crawlspace. As you can see, this product is made of plastic and therefore will never break down or decompose like a wooden door would.
