Reliable Expansion Joint Covers by Area Safe 

Area Safe offers robust and reliable expansion joint covers designed to accommodate slab movements safely and with long-term durability. These covers provide an effective solution for construction projects where long-term performance and protection are essential.

Key Features

Slotted Holes for Enhanced Flexibility

Unlike alternatives with round holes that risk bolt breakage, Area Safe Expansion Joint Covers feature slotted holes. These allow the cover to move with the slab, preventing safety hazards and providing long-lasting stability in high-traffic areas.

Corrosion-Resistant Design

Hot-dip galvanised for superior protection against rust and corrosion, these covers are built to withstand the elements, offering a significant advantage over options that lack proper corrosion resistance.

Strength and Durability

Constructed with a 5 mm plate thickness, Area Safe's covers provide enhanced strength compared to thinner, 3 mm alternatives. This makes them ideal for projects requiring extra durability and load-bearing capacity.

Customisable Options

Area Safe offers a variety of design options, including humped covers for cable access and waterproofing, as well as checker plates for added slip resistance. Competitors often offer only flat or smooth finishes, limiting customisation.

Noise and Friction Control

All covers come standard with 4.5 mm thick, ply-reinforced rubber designed to absorb noise and withstand friction. This noise-cancelling feature provides a quieter, safer environment, unlike alternatives that offer thinner or non-reinforced rubber that wears out quickly.
