ALUMINIUM ACCESS COVERS
STANDARD ACCESS COVERS, MADE TO ORDER IN 3 WEEKS.
All of our access covers are designed and constructed out of marine-grade aluminium and manufactured to AS3996.
"Mass Products is the Australian industry leader for the supply and installation of aluminium access covers and safety grates."
This is a before and after installation of a custom access cover.
All of our access covers are designed and constructed out of marine-grade aluminium and manufactured to AS3996.
Whether our customers are constructing a new pump station or refurbishing an existing site, we supply a range of standard access covers to suit common clear opening off the shelf, through to custom sizes and lid opening arrangements to suit the customer's requirements.
Our covers are designed so that personnel have the ability to carry out maintenance duties and access pump rails and instruments without having the need to open the safety grate, protecting workers from falling from heights risks and eliminating the need to be tied off whilst carrying out tasks around the open well.
Benefits of Aluminum Access Covers
ACCESS COVER FEATURES
Fall Proof Protection Grating Panels
Aluminum safety grating panels fixed underneath and incorporated into access covers to provide fall proof prevention while working near or over the top of open manholes and pits.

FEATURES:
Spring Assist
The 316 s.stl spring assist is an engineered spring system that incorporates into access covers and safety grates when weight becomes a contributing safety factor for lifting manhole covers and grates.
The engineered spring assist is designed to provide a safe lifting weight for access covers and safety grates. The spring assist is ideal for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a lightweight and simple operational solution for overweight access covers and safety grates.
The optional spring assist feature is used to provide a safer lifting weight for operators to access manhole openings and pits in the following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
90 Degree Access Cover Locking Mechanism
The 90 degree locking mechanism is a feature designed to hold access covers in the open/upright position while carrying out maintenance in and around manholes and openings, rather than a traditional cover design which hinges 180 degrees to floor level creating a potential trip hazard.
The engineered 90 degree locking device provides a safer operational practice when working near or around manholes or openings. The 90 degree locking mechanism is ideally suited for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a lightweight and simple operational access solution for manhole openings and pits.
The 90 degree locking feature provides safe and operational access to manhole openings and pits in the following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
Recessed Lifting Handle
The recessed lifting handle is designed to be flush mounted into access covers to provide a safe environment and eliminate potential trip hazards.
The engineered recessed lifting handle design provides a safer operational practice working near or around manholes or openings. The lifting handle feature is ideal for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a lightweight and simple operational access solution for manhole openings and pits.
The recessed lifting handle feature provides safe and operational access to manhole openings and pits in the following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
Slab Skirting
Aluminum slab skirting is used to form the concrete opening beneath the access cover frame and provides slab protection from the elements while decreasing the set up time for precast applications.
The slab skirting feature is used by precast concrete pit providers and civil construction companies that require a faster precast solution and is ideal for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a cast in access cover.
Slab skirting should be used when the need to provide a finished look beneath the access cover is needed, or when a more labour efficient installation is required when casting the access cover into a precast concrete slab. Ideally suited for following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
Grating Panel Lock
The grating panel locking mechanism is a feature designed to hold the safety grating panel in the open/upright position while carrying out maintenance below the access cover. It also prevents closure of the access cover without first closing the grating panel.
The engineered grating panel lock is designed to provide a safer operational practice working near or around manholes or openings and is ideal for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a lightweight and simple operational access solution for manhole openings and pits.
The grating panel locking feature is designed to provide safe and operational access to manhole openings and pits in the following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
KLS (Keyed Lifting Slot)
The KLS (keyed lifting slot) is a slotted penetration in the access cover and grating panel to provide the use of a mechanical lifting handle to reduce the potential risk of a manual handling or back injury.
The engineered KLS is designed to provide a safer operational practice working near or around manholes or openings and is ideally suited for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a lightweight and simple operational access solution for manhole openings and pits.
The aluminium safety grating panels are ideal for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a lightweight and operational access solution.
The KLS feature provides safe and operational access to manhole openings and pits in the following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
Grating Panel Penetrations
Grating panel penetrations are designated cut outs in the safety grating panel to provide safer operating practices by being able to access valves and instruments from ground level without having to lift the grating panel, potentially creating a single person operation without the need for harnesses or safety equipment.
The grating panel penetrations are ideal for water authorities, councils, pump station manufacturers and civil engineering companies that require a safe and efficient operational access solution for manhole openings and pits.
The engineered grating penetrations are designed to provide a safer operational practice working near or around manhole openings and pits in the following applications: Water and wastewater treatment plants, sewer and water pumping stations, valve pits, overflow chambers, flowmeter pits, electrical pits, grease traps.
FEATURES:
Access Cover Penetrations
Access cover penetrations are designated hinged cut out access points in the cover designed to provide safer operating practices by being able to access valves and instruments from ground level without having to lift the cover plate of the access cover.
