Alupura - Waterproof tileable cover - ACO

Alupura - Waterproof tileable cover - ACO

Alupura lids , made of aluminum alloy , consist of a lid and a frame.
The hollow-shaped lid is fitted with a base plate and is reinforced with a mesh frame for perfect fixing of the covering to be placed.

Supplied with a pre-mounted synthetic dustproof profile which, during installation, keeps the cover and frame equidistant and prevents the penetration of residues.
A gasket placed under the lid ensures the lid is watertight. The lid is screwed at each corner using four hex bolts and is therefore securely fastened.

Practical, the 2-in-1 hex keys allow you to screw or unscrew the bolts and also to lift or replace the cover in the frame.
The aluminum corner profiles ensure a perfect connection with the tiles and an aesthetically pleasing finish. PVC caps prevent dirt from accumulating in the hexagonal bolt slots and provide added aesthetic value.
