Very often they are the weakest place in the pavement, which breaks down and causes unevenness, areas of risk and poor aesthetic appearance. The structure of the ACO Access Covers allows the floor to be embedded in the lid frame. This gives freedom in the design of areas with natural stone, pavement, asphalt or other architectural solutions without visual surface discontinuity with a guaranteed flat surface and bonnet resistance, as required by European standards. Made of stainless steel, galvanised steel, cast iron or aluminum.
ACO Access covers are designed for horizontal installation, the tray is up. Covers are made from stainless steel, galvanised steel or aluminium in different load classes according to EN 124. They are divided according to the filling material into covers filled with concrete, covers made for filling by the paving and the covers with checkered steel plate on the top. The covers should not be used while the temperature is above 70°C.
