The handling box of AKSESS and PARXESS manhole covers enables the rising using usual or occasional tools: pickaxe, crowbars, hammer, like with the hand.

Two modes of opening are possible: « Articulated » or « Slid ».

Articulated mode :

The cover is articulated effortlessly thanks to its specific design in the throat of the frame and remains stable in vertical position.

Slide mode :

It's also possible to open the cover by drawing it like a drawer using a pickaxe for example. The sliding motion of the cover in the frame authorizes this operation which can prove to be practical for the large sizes.

The closing takes place either by the opposite gesture, or while placing the cover in the frame and by making it slip.
