For security and visibility, it’s hard to get better than a Wade trench cover road plate.
When you require a suitable and sufficient solution to maintain access, either on site, or in a public-facing location, the bright yellow, high-visibility Wade plate will do the job.
In addition, the anti-slip surface exceeds the current HSE slip resistance requirements as standard, giving you the confidence that you are on a secure footing.
The trench plates are fabricated using a sheet moulding composite (SMC) process which is a low-waste, high-recyclable method of production that results in a lower carbon footprint.
Sized at 1200 by 800mm, the Wade trench plates should be positioned so that each end has a minimum bearing of 250mm.
The high visibility yellow finish means that the plates are easy to see, and the 3mm bevelled edges lower any trip hazard to almost zero.
As part of any street works project or site access plan the trench plates will deliver a safe, secure bridging point over any excavation. Use them with the range of pedestrian access control products available to deploy a fully integrated safe access plan.
