  • About Aluminium Manhole Covers

    Managing access to sewage and other utilities (like electricity and water), while preventing smells from escaping and protecting them from debris and water can be essential in both private and public spaces. Our range of aluminium manhole covers is designed to provide easy access to utilities and services in both indoor and outdoor environments, with lifting keys included for your convenience. 

    These covers are perfect for installation in areas like residential driveways, pedestrian paths, and indoor utility rooms, where a heavier-duty load-bearing capacity of cast iron or steel covers is not required. 

    Aluminium manhole covers are lightweight yet durable, providing good resistance to corrosion and weather conditions alike. Their lightweight properties allow for easier installation and removal, reducing the physical strain on workers and making maintenance tasks more efficient.

    Recessed Aluminium Manhole Covers

    Aluminium recessed manhole covers feature a hollow top, meaning they can be filled with paving materials (like stone, gravel, tiles or even wood), creating a finish that blends in with the surrounding area’s aesthetic. Because of this recessed design, these covers are perfect for installation in indoor and outdoor areas like pedestrian areas and landscaped spaces, because of this recessed design. Once filled, this leaves a discreet access point that conforms visually with its surroundings.

    Solid Aluminium Covers

    Solid aluminium manhole covers are designed to provide a solid, unventilated, exceptionally durable and secure barrier. They are suitable for areas where a strong cover is needed to prevent tampering. Our range of solid manhole covers in aluminium often features slip-resistant surfaces and comes in a range of different designs and sizes.

    Getting The Best Aluminium Manhole Cover For Your Needs

    Consider the following factors when choosing the best aluminium manhole cover for your needs:

    Load-Bearing Capacity

    It’s important to choose a cover that has the correct load bearing capacity for its intended use case and also has the correct slip-resistant surface. f. Standard residential covers can generally support pedestrian and light vehicle traffic, while heavier-duty options can handle small utility vehicles. Make sure the cover meets the required loads to prevent damage to infrastructure and vehicles!

    Slip Resistance

    Depending on the style of manhole cover you choose, and its intended installation location, slip resistance can be an important safety feature, especially in high-footfall indoor public spaces. Choose a cover with slip-resistant features to reduce the likelihood of slips and falls, or consider a recessed manhole cover with contents that improve grip, especially in wet or icy conditions.

    Visual Coherence

    For areas where appearance is important, consider a recessed manhole cover that can blend in with its surroundings.

    Ease of Installation and Removal

    The lightweight nature of plastic manhole covers makes them easier to handle compared to heavier materials. Most of our manhole covers come with lifting keys for ease of use, but consider the cover’s material and features for easier installation and use.

    Security Features

    Sometimes, it’s important to prevent access to the utilities below the manhole cover. Look for covers with locking mechanisms or tamper-resistant designs. These features are especially important in public areas and private properties where safety and security concerns are higher.

    Ventilation & Odour Control

    Do you need to allow or prevent airflow through the manhole cover? In indoor areas where moisture control and air circulation are important, ventilated manhole covers that allow air to flow freely while protecting the utilities below can be an ideal solution. In areas where odours may come up from the manhole cover, consider a double or triple-sealed cover.
