Zusammenfassung:	An access panel frame 100 for fitting into an opening (170, Fig. 1D) in, for example, a wall (108, Fig. 1C), wherein the opening is defined by a plurality of sides. The frame 100 comprises a plurality of elongate expandable members 110a-d, each expandable member 110a-d comprising a moveable portion 114 and a corresponding fixed portion 112. Each moveable portion 114 is arranged parallel to its corresponding fixed portion 112 and is configured to slide in a direction substantially perpendicular to a length of the corresponding fixed portion 112 in order to expand the expandable member 110a-d such that, when the frame 100 is placed in the opening, the expandable member 110ad closes a gap (172, Fig. 1D) between the frame 100 and a respective side of the opening. This allows the access panel frame to provide improved fire resistance.
