Well I am not a carpenter but what I have seen done, is a subtly removable panel that you can remove for access. I have no idea if this is acceptable by code or not. In my house I cannot access them at all without knocking out drywall; but there are many many things about how my basement was done that really irritate me. (If I had had a brain 7 years ago when I bought the house I would have just ripped it all out and redone it "my way" before I started getting too much down there... oh well.)
