So have a weird one here. Not sure how to go about it.
I bought a house that had some ... structural issues. Finally getting that sorted out and the floors are now somewhat level-ish. Enough that I can finally start putting down a new floor.
However ... I have a bit of a situation that I'm not sure how to solve.
This house is on a crawlspace. I'm too big to fit in through the crawlspace windows comfortable. There's 3 hatches throughout the 1st floor that provide access to the crawlspace. I'd like to keep them.
Right now , the living room has a carpet down so that hides one of them. The "sun room" / porch ... thingy ... has no flooring down and is just the plywood which I pick up as needed. Kitchen has two hatches that provide access to the cluster that I will need to keep for a while.
I'm planning on going with something similar to this (probably not from lowes, but easiest to link)

Any idea on how I could use this type of flooring and affix it to the hatches I have made? 2 of the hatches have hinges, the third does not ... and the fourth isn't so much a hatch as it is a 5x4 floor that is completely removeable.
Thanks!
Also taking suggestions on where I can get this type of flooring rather cheap. The house isn't worth nice or real hardwood floors. I just want something that can make it until I decide to sell or rent it out with the occasional piece replaced here and there.
