320mm Diameter Square Manhole Cover & Frame
Product Description
This 320mm Diameter Square Manhole Cover & Frame is a strong, dependable solution whenever you need a square surface finish over a round chamber opening. Designed for inspection chambers where square grates or aesthetic drainage surfaces are required above a circular lid, it converts the opening neatly while maintaining access and safety.
The cover and frame are built from durable PVC, designed to withstand pedestrian loads (rated to 15 kN), moisture, and underground conditions. The total dimensions of the panel are approximately 380mm × 380mm × 30mm (L × W × H), which gives a solid square surround while fitting over a 320mm diameter round frame or riser. It includes a round opening in its center (clear opening about 300mm) to match inspection chamber lids and risers of that diameter.
Ideal for paths, patios, driveway edges, or landscaped areas where square access panels are preferred, this cover and frame combination ensures a flush, neat appearance while providing full access for inspection, cleaning, or maintenance of underground drainage runs. Supplied with a robust frame and a matching cover plate, the unit helps eliminate the typical mismatch between round chamber risers and square surface finishes.
