How to hide pvc cistern access panel?

[Hannahbanana]

I’m having my bathroom renovated in pvc panels, the company didn’t want to install an access panel and by my request have put one in but they’re saying they can’t hide it.

surely there’s a way they can hide the access panel even with it being pvc cladding?! I have no idea but in hind sight looking at it they should of used a geberit cistern, but too late now it’s in

I’m due to get this finished in a few days and unless I can request them to do it a certain way I feel like they’re not going to hide it, surely they could of made an access in the shelf .. something.

Has anyone got any ideas or tips please! I haven’t got a clue with stuff like this so please be nice!

I could live with that but as you say the shelf could have been made removeable. Maybe the white panel could be replaced to match the rest. Worth keeping some spare panels for future use
