I've looked at putting it behind the step frame, but there's only about 9 inches before you get to an L stiffener. I've looked at putting it behind the rear spar, but there's only about 10 inches, and I worry about weakening the skin near the spar. If I put behind the L stiffener rear of the step frame, I could put a nice size access hatch there but it'd be a long way from things that might need maintenance or inspection.

A 1/4 to 1/2 inch turnup on the edges of the reinforcement will give you plenty of rigidity. I've seen "trapdoors" big enough to crawl through (maybe they were intended as bomb bay doors.)
