Features

Features: The Double Safety Grate provides continuous safety assurance in both its closed and open positions. When closed, the grate system allows people to move freely around the hatch opening without fear of falling into the opening. Also, it allows visibility for inspections and accessibility for limited maintenance and float adjustments below the grate. When open, it acts as an additional barrier to the access door opening. Since the hatch cover cannot be shut without first closing the Double Safety Grate, this system insures that the grate is in position when the next person opens the hatch cover. Since the grates do not provide load reinforcing for the covers, damaged or missing grates will not jeopardize the function of the covers in carrying the specified load capacity of the hatch.

Retrofit: The Double Safety Grate can be retrofitted into existing openings. It can be made to fit the custom dimensions of most floor access hatches.
