The panel 32 includes hardware for pivotally mounting and locking and releasing the panel 32 in the ceiling which are in engagement with the vertical sidewalls 40 to 43 of the panel 32. The panel hardware includes pivot members 44 and spring biased slide members 50 for moving the hardware out of the way of the support members 12 when the panel 32 is either installed or uninstalled. The pivot members 44 and the slide members 50 are made of flat stamped sheet metal and are mounted by being inserted and positioned in slots 62, 64, 66, 72, 72' of the sidewalls 40 to 43 and in notched out bend tabs 70, 70', respectively.
