Falling is painful indeed, but what’s more painful is falling into a manhole! Prevent pedestrians from the probable risk of injuries with the help of
manhole cover signs, guards and accessories.
-
• OSHA requires confined spaces like manholes to be marked to restrict entry and prevent accidents.
- • Use a rigid plastic or an adhesive vinyl sign to mark manhole covers; restrict entry and prevent unauthorized access. Covers also draw attention to manholes, helping personnel find the confined space easily.
- • Use guard lifters to open manholes safely.
- • Use bright and sturdy guard rails to prevent people from falling into open manholes.
