Original Manhole Pit Guard – Fast, Reusable Protection for Open Manholes & Pits

The Original Manhole Pit Guard is a simple, effective way to help protect workers and the public from open manholes and service pits during maintenance, inspections, and civil works.

Designed for fast deployment on-site, it creates a highly visible barrier over open access points to help reduce fall risk and improve overall worksite safety — without the hassle of bulky barricades or temporary fencing.

Features

✅ Quick to deploy – ideal for maintenance teams and mobile crews
✅ Reusable and durable – Manufactured from Heavy Duty Steel Construction
✅ Highly visible safety coverage – improves hazard awareness instantly
✅ Compact and easy to handle – saves time compared to larger barriers
✅ Suitable for multiple applications – works across civil, plumbing, utilities and council operations
✅ Suitable for manholes up to 1200 mm in diameter

Ideal for:

Civil construction and road crews
Councils and local government maintenance teams
Plumbing and drainage contractors
Utility access works (water / communications / infrastructure)
Any job requiring temporary protection over open pits or manholes

A smarter alternative to cones alone

Cones and tape don’t always stop someone stepping into an open hole. The Original Manhole Pit Guard provides a more direct, physical safety cover that helps reduce risk while work is underway.
