Racedeck - drain access

[Awruff]

I purchased Racedeck tiles for my garage but I have an access port to a draining pipe that is raised about 1/4 inch from the rest of the tiles (photo attached). I’m thinking of sanding/grinding the tile above the opening. Any suggestions or tools I should use for this?

Thanks for your help.

You could router the understructure just over 1/4" and slightly wider than the circle ( allowing for movement) .

Any reason not to cut a hole so you retain that access?

no reason other than cosmetics. If you are not accessing regularly, then it's very easy to pop-up a single section to access for maintenance

I agree.

In a previous garage, we followed this advice and remove the locks. We just set it in place and never had an issue. Would be different if it was a traffic area
