Grates and manhole covers come in all shapes and sizes spread throughout your property and are a quick “pick up” for any thief…
GRATEFIX is a heavy-duty clamp that allows open floor grating to be clamped to the supporting steel from the topside only. The Gratefix features a cast bottom piece that provides additional strength to clamp on to the steel flange. The Gratefix is available in several different styles to suit the grating dimensions and the application.
