door/cover to allow Access to stopcock

Hi.

I have a stopcock at the back of the unit under the kitchen sink, also a tap that allows me to pressurise the central heating system at the back of another unit. To get at either, I have to remove the contents of the cupboard, then a shelf, then remove the unit back plate, all of which is a fiddle.

Is there some sort of cover or door I could buy to allow me easy access to these controls? I'm thinking of a square or round plastic frame that I fit onto a hole I cut in the back plate and the frame has either a little door, or a screw-in round cover.

I've tried internet searching but I'm not even sure what to call these things - all I get is the metal ones you get for the pavement outdoors.

Any ideas?

Thanks
