Have new hardwood floor going in...access to crawl space in closet is thru a opening in the floor as was impractical to build in other entry and there's very little likelihood of this area needing access anyway--no plumbing, wiring, etc.
Q? It would be kewl to have somthing like a lever or handle release with a spring load or something similar to raise one end for access when needed so don't have to put a set of protruding handles in the floor. It is back in a closet out of traffic area, but still would be better to be flush.
Anybody got ideas for purpose? I've not found anything yet truly outstanding...
