Modular Covers (Large Span)

Modular Manhole Covers - Access Solutions

Forecourt Solutions are pleased to offer two alternative modular cover ranges. Such modular assemblies are ideal for use where only partial access is normally required and intermittently complete access. In such applications single piece covers would be prohibitively expensive and usually required assisted lifting mechanisms which can be avoided using modular techniques. Such covers also provide a significant HSE advantage by minimising the open entry size.

Forecourt Solutions ranges include an all composite version available in a range of sizes reflecting those commonly required in the utility industries. Alternatively our custom design service is able to provide an huge range of sizes of composite covers within modular galvanised steel frames tailored to meet you individual requirements.

Type 1 - Modular Composite Covers with a Galvanised Steel Support Frame

These covers are an excellent alternative to traditional infill covers to provide access to underground chambers and ductwork systems. Available in virtually any size each cover module is individually removable without mechanical assistance to allow access or inspection. Complete access can be achieve one all covers are removed by further removal of the main and sub beams. Load bearing capabilities can be designed to suit you anticipated cover loading requirements. Some recent uses have included; railway drawpits, recycling centres, covers over mill workings, trench and duct covers in large industrial plants, airport concourse access covers, shipyard duct access covers, motorway communications chamber covers and new build school electrical cable ducts. The applications are however almost limitless, we will be happy to discuss your project requirements and advise the most suitable cover configuration to meet your requirements.
