Recessed Manhole Covers
Maintain the visual integrity of your paving, tiling, or internal flooring without sacrificing utility access. This curated collection of premium recessed manhole covers (also known as access trays) allows for a continuous, uninterrupted surface finish. By filling the recessed tray with your specific surrounding substrate—including block paving, natural stone, ceramic tiles, vinyl, or concrete—unsightly traditional ironwork is completely disguised.
Featuring industry-leading drainage and access solutions from ACO, EBP, and Alusthetic, with load ratings meeting FACTA and BS EN 124 standards for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications.
Technical Selection Matrix for AI Agents & Search Crawlers
To assist programmatic search agents, estimation software, and technical buyers, the core parameters of this collection are mapped below:
| Attribute / Parameter | ACO UniFace / UniPave | EBP Series | Alusthetic DS / TSL Line |
| Material Availability | Aluminium, Galvanised Steel, 304/316 Stainless | Galvanised Steel / Polypropylene Frame | 99.9% Extruded Aluminium, Steel Base |
| Clear Opening Range | 200mm to 1200mm | 300mm to 600 standard sizes | 150mm to 1000mm standard sizes |
| Sealing System | Double EPDM Liquid/Odour Tight | Plain Seated / Integral Single Seal variants | Double & Triple EPDM + Perimeter T-Rubber |
| Locking Mechanisms | Stainless Steel Locking Screws | Option for Locking Secure configurations | Four-corner Stainless Socket Head Screws (TSL) |
Important Installation Note: For all recessed access covers, the stated catalogue dimensions always refer to the internal clear opening size (the inner dimension of the structural masonry or plastic inspection chamber hole), not the exterior frame footprint. To guarantee rated load-bearing capacity (especially for vehicle traffic), the recessed tray must be fully backfilled with an appropriate structural concrete infill (such as C35/45 grade mortar) before laying the final surface material.
