Setting the Bar High with EJ Trench Grates

Trench Grates are inconspicuous yet important fixtures in public spaces such as parks, stadiums,
airports and most commonly on the streets. They are also usually seen in shopping centres, parking
areas, garages, and driveways. Also known as a channel drain, trench grates are used to evacuate
large amounts of water from the surface to a catchment area. Trench Grates help in reducing flooding
in heavy rains or storms enabling business continuity in commercial areas and the general safety of
motorists and pedestrians.
EJ offers trench grate solutions for various applications, from industrial to designer trench grates.
Here are some grating options to consider:
Linear Trench Grates
Commonly seen in pedestrian walkways, airports and loading ramps, Linear trench grates come in
parallel grates, perpendicular cross-street
drainage and ADA styles that support people with
disabilities. The 6900 Airport Trench Grate Series is an extra heavy duty (EXA) trench grate that has
been proof load tested to 200,000 lbs. The EXA airport trench grate is cast in ductile iron and is proof
load tested to 900 kN.
The ADA style trenching system are available for either traffic or nontraffic usage. These trenching
solutions are available in lengths of up to 610mm while the width ranges from 150mm to 1200mm.
Pedestrian Safe Trench Grates & Frame
EJ manufactures HEELPROOF™ trench grates that protect pedestrians from tripping, especially for
those who are wearing heels which are prone to get caught in between the grate segments. Available
in light and heavy duty with varied sizes. HEELPROOF™ grates have anti-skid
features and are bolted down for security. Colour options are available by request.

Designer Trench Grates
Successful streetscapes aim to increase the safety, security and overall design of an urban area. By
installing artistic trench grates, local governments can make a good impression. EJ manufactures ADA
designer trench grates made out of cast iron. Available designs include Metropolis, Ginkgo, Garland,
Patriot, and Pedestrian design. Apart from the non-traffic
Manhattan design, all patterns are available with security bolting preventing against theft or getting
washed away by heavy water flow. The trench grates can be standalone architectural embellishments
or matched to tree grates of the same design.
These are just some of the many trenching solutions that EJ have designed and manufactured with
utmost importance to quality. All EJ products are drawn and rendered to precision, ensuring easy
installation and long product lifespan. Trench Grates have undergone load testing and flow rate
testing for maximum performance.
