Description

Fixed Rails

Fixed rails are generally used for larger sizes up to 3000 x 3000 however we can manufacture larger sizes in certain circumstances. The fixed rails provide a maximum clear opening ideal for equipment, tools and personnel access. The external rail is fixed down onto the roof and provides structural support fotr the lid.

Telescopic Rails

Telescopic sliding covers are ideal for smaller sizes that only require access for maintenance personnel or end users. These are available in sizes up to 750 x 2500. Perfect for manual operation, the sliding cover easily and smoothly opens to provide maximum clear opening for easy access.
