Print this case study Print this resource | Download PDF Download PDF

Installing a Stocksafe Access Grid is quick and easy.  There are two installation options:

a) On-ground

b) In-ground

Site Preparation

  • Pit - The pit should be deep enough to allow for drainage and ease of cleaning.  Silt build up will occur over time.
  • Footing - A firm footing is required for both in ground and above ground installations.  Depending on ground conditions, a compacted base is generally more than satisfactory, however if in doubt, a concrete footing should be installed.
  • Grid - Care should be taken to ensure that the grid sits correctly in relation to the camber of the road.
  • Fill - Compaction of filled areas is critical to successful grid installation and ultimately, grid life.
  • Surface - Ensure that the compacted ground surface is level with the grid rails.  Incorrect surface levels will affect the life of the grid.
