Vetus Libero Hatch

VETUS Libero Hatch | Premium Marine Deck Hatches

Upgrade your vessel with the VETUS Libero Hatch, a pinnacle of design and engineering in the world of marine deck equipment. These premium Hatches are crafted for the discerning boat owner who demands both flawless functionality and sophisticated aesthetics. Perfectly blending robust construction with a sleek, modern look, the Libero series enhances the safety, comfort, and value of any sailboat or motor yacht.

Elegant Design Meets Robust Construction

The VETUS Libero Hatch is immediately distinguished by its superior finish. These hatches have a hand polished and anodized aluminum frame, which not only provides a stunning, high-end finish that complements any deck but also ensures exceptional resistance to corrosion and the harsh marine environment. The frame is paired with a durable 10 mm ‘dark smoke’ coloured acrylic lid. This stylish acrylic provides privacy and reduces glare and heat in the cabin below, all while maintaining a clear view of the sky. The frame features a smooth 32 or 55 mm corner radius, contributing to a clean and integrated appearance on your deck.

Ultimate Control and Versatility

Experience unparalleled control over your cabin´s ventilation. The escape and deck hatches come with robust adjusters and friction hinges, a combination that allows the lid to be held open at almost any angle up to 90°. This provides precise control over airflow, from a slight crack on a breezy day to fully open for maximum ventilation at anchor. This wide opening also ensures the hatch can serve as a reliable and accessible escape route in case of an emergency, a critical safety feature for any vessel.

Certified for Offshore Safety

Engineered for peace of mind on the open water, the Type LIBERO is suitable for design category A, Area II. This essential CE certification signifies that these hatches are approved for ocean-going vessels and can be installed in the most demanding areas of the deck, withstanding the forces of green water and ensuring your safety in all conditions. When you install a VETUS Libero, you are installing a product tested and approved to the highest maritime standards.
