Safe Cover Trench Cover – 12×8

Keep footpaths open during street works by installing our 12/8 Safe Cover trench covers. These covers offer a safe and secure temporary option for short-term or permanent solutions.

Our covers serve as an exceptional alternative to expensive and cumbersome equipment like heavy-duty cranes, offering a simple lift-and-place installation method. Unlike GRP road plates that are part of a linked modular system, our trench covers are designed as single units. This enables deployment by only two people.

Transportation and storage are hassle-free due to the compact design. Moreover, the installation process is incredibly straightforward. You simply need two people to bolt the cover into position on the ground with no machinery or equipment.

The cover is designed to comfortably bridge a 700mm hole or trench to create a permanent or semi-permanent solution quickly and easily. Key features include:

• No bolts required in most applications; simply place the cover over the excavation.
• Easy installation without the need for heavy lifting equipment.
• No cold patch or asphalt ramps required; this pedestrian trench cover sits close to the ground at a mere 30mm height.
• Fits easily in the back of a works vehicle.
• Embedded anti-slip surface with instructions for use.

The covers meet with 7976 British Standards for slip testing, Hauc 2018/01, and Department of Transport traffic advice.
