Explosion A Blow To Low Cost Covers
Lock-Down Covers By EJ A Preventative

In a recent central city underground blast in Sydney, a 50kg manhole cover was blown at least one metre into the air causing chaos, fear and disruption to bustling Christmas shoppers.

The fact is, scenarios like this are completely preventable with the right manhole covers installed in the first instance. EJ designs and manufactures an extensive range of lockdown covers that contain such situations and so prevent unnecessary anxiety.

But what this incident also exposes is the issue of security. The simple fact is manhole covers protect communications, data, electrical and water supply assets and infrastructure. The locking systems that EJ has designed and incorporated into their access covers, are based on international experience and know-how and have been ingeniously engineered to withstand even the most persistent, savage assaults.

EJ offers a significant range with bolt-down and cam lock features in their MAESTRO™ and MAXIMO™ models. The sizes range from 400mm to 900mm in circular covers but their selection of rectangular, 2 part and multi-part covers also include lock-down features that are tamper resistant and explosion retardant.
