GRATEdesign Rigid Grille is sturdy and offers design flexibility and is
effective in any type of high-traffic entrance.

joined by low-density polyethylene (LDPE) hinge. The cushion retained
in the captive aluminum tread port, along with drainage holes, allows
debris and moisture to flow through the grate.
MATdesign Roll-Up Mat is engineered with aluminum rails, ball and
socket aluminum hinges and drain holes to allow debris and moisture
to flow through
the mat.

noise. The lightweight aluminum rails make this mat easy to roll back
for routine maintenance.
