The Garden Manhole Cover Solution
GrassTop Recessed Manhole Covers
GrassTop and Recessed Manhole Covers offer a practical and visually appealing solution for garden and lawn drainage. Unlike traditional solid top or recessed drain covers, which disrupt the look of your outdoor spaces, GrassTop covers are designed to blend seamlessly into grassed areas while maintaining full functionality.
These covers are equipped with pre-drilled drainage holes, allowing rainwater to filter naturally through the ground. Combined with a double layer of geotextile membranes, the system supports grass growth directly within the tray, creating a green and uninterrupted lawn. GrassTop covers can also be filled with alternative materials like rubber crumb, artificial turf, decorative gravels, or other porous products to suit your project's needs.
Our GrassTop manhole covers are made to order and typically delivered to your site within three working days. We offer a range of 13 standard sizes, with bespoke options available on request.
Features of GrassTop Covers:
- Pre-drilled drainage holes for natural water filtration.
- Factory-fitted geotextile membranes to support grass growth.
- Integral lifting keys for easy handling (for covers up to 750 x 600 mm).
- Load capacity of up to 10 tonnes.
- Polypropylene frames with galvanised steel trays (up to 600 x 600 mm).
- Fully galvanised mild steel construction for larger covers (750 x 600 mm and above).
Grass Filled Recessed Manhole Covers
Designed with the same innovation as GrassTop covers, Recessed Manhole Covers are the ideal choice for gravel driveways, pathways, and grassed parking areas. Traditional recessed trays often allow gravel to move and spread underfoot or vehicle tyres. Recessed Manhole Covers solve this problem by integrating a high-strength grid system that stabilises the material.
Grasstop Manhole Covers are factory-fitted and cut to size, ensuring quick and hassle-free installation. Built with a high load-bearing capacity of up to 350 tonnes, these covers are both durable and versatile. For larger or unique projects, we also offer custom sizes, including multi-part recessed covers up to 2 metres x 2 metres.
Key Benefits of Grasstop Covers:
- Stabilises gravel and other porous materials.
- Ready-to-install covers with pre-fitted grid systems.
- Exceptional load-bearing capacity (up to 350 tonnes).
- Custom sizes and configurations available on request.
If you're looking for a drainage solution that combines functionality with aesthetics, grass infills and recessed manhole covers provide the perfect balance.
