Default kitchen floor with a trap door

pricing a job up at the moment, a 5m2 kitchen floor on what look like old but solid floor boards, with a trap door in the middle which the customer still wants to use, but still wants it to look as though its incorporated in the tiled floor as best i can?
any advice ? !
would you build some kind of frame work for the trap door for the tiles to sit in?
i can see this one being a bit of a pain!

Can't say for sure without a picture of how it looks. But I can say this: Be careful if you want to build a frame, because you might end up with the trap door stuck if you don't leave enough margins.

Pictures would be handy, if the door is flush with the floor I can talk you through it, I have done quite a few...Gaz
