The DuraShield is the most advanced, high level manhole security device available. Even the most aggressive attacks will be deterred by what many have referred to as a “bank vault door” of protection. Secure your manholes from terrorists, thieves, saboteurs, vandals and protect your system with one strong manhole security device. Access is eliminated, safety is assured and your assets remain locked and protected with the DuraShield manhole security device.
Multiple security points
Other manhole security inserts use only two security points. The DuraShield manhole security device has three, reinforced security points to provide you with unmatched protection. That’s 50% more manhole security than other products.

Unlike other products on the market, the DuraShield manhole security device has no chains, bars or any cumbersome dangling components to hit your shins, ankles or any other part of your body.
