Reduce your costs and liability with the U-Cover® Universal Hand Hole Cover!
Light pole covers restrict access to the dangerous high-voltage wires within light poles and are a necessary safety measure taken by utility companies and municipalities.
Most metal hand hold covers, however, become an unnecessary obstacle for emergency crews. Their screws oxidize due to exposure, requiring the crews to break or pry the cover off the lamp post cover. Once forcibly removed, usually it’s the screw tabs on the pole that breaks and the covers cannot be reattached. This leaves the dangerous, high-voltage wires exposed, posing safety risks to the local community.
The U-Cover® was invented by an emergency crew supervisor who experienced this problem firsthand. He wanted a safe and convenient light pole hand hole cover that would last.
The U-Cover®’s patented design allows crews to secure hand holes on flanged and unflanged utility poles 6" to 12" in diameter. The universal pole hand hole cover design eliminates the need to stock several size hand hole covers for various size poles or openings.

-
