A solution for every scenario Highway D400 manhole coversDesigned and manufactured to meet the enhanced requirements of Highways England’s CD 534 v0.2.0 specification. The Kitemarked Highway range of manhole covers exceeds BS EN 124:2015 requirements and includes safety and specific design features required by Highways England.
Hinge and Lift Out (HALO)HaloHinge boasts a creative design. The covers are fully removable using standard BS 7903 lifting keys, but the covers can also hinge to 100 degrees, remaining captive within the frame and free from risk of accidental closure. The hinges are located on the inside of the frame. This simple design allows for the infill surfaces to be compacted against the straight edges of the frame with ease, unlike other alternatives that have protruding hinges that are difficult to compact around. Compacting equipment over the hinge housing can apply destructive forces to the hinge housing and foundation, making inboard hinges a great solution. Moreover, the inboard hinges prevent hinge pockets from clogging with dirt and debris, ensuring that the hinges operate reliably and promote better health and safety. Additionally, Highway HaloHinge covers are compatible with GritBlocker, the anti-blockage keyway insert that provides unblocked keyways at every operation. Available options and accessoriesOptions
Create an installation that lastsSpecification clausesDownload and use our specification clauses within project documentation to reference Unite and Highway product ranges for ironwork installations. These documents provide clear guidance to support specification and product selection during project planning. Incorporating these clauses within specifications helps provide consistency in product selection and installation approach across projects involving ductile iron access covers and frames.
Only with WrekinRetrofittable antenna optionsUnite* and Highway access covers are the only ranges on the UK market to include provisions for communications equipment, such as antennas, to be installed within the cover.
The ID bolt provision can be used for antennas, allowing communications equipment, such as water meter monitoring, to be installed within a chamber beneath a cover while providing a strong signal above ground without the need to dig or adjust the surrounding road surface. Saving time, effort and money while minimising disruption. * references ending /KUE

Manhole cover frame raising systemClicklift compatibleClicklift eliminates the time and resources required to dig out and reinstall frames to suit the final adoptable surface. This eliminates the potential damage to manhole covers during construction and removes the potential for residents claims for damage to their vehicles and massively reduces disruption. Clicklift provides housing developers with huge savings in terms of time, money and hassle. Allowing whole estates to have their covers raised to the final surfacing level, in as little as a few hours.
The hard hat for your ironworkArmadillo compatibleArmadillo is a complete range of protector shells, made to be placed over manhole covers and gully grates to provide enhanced protection during the construction phase. Armadillo provides protection from construction site traffic, including tracked vehicles, and can be removed when the final surfacing is completed. This ensures manhole covers and gully grates can start their service life in ‘as new’ condition to optimise longevity. Ideally suited for
