Sewer Cleanout Grate Cover

Sewer Cleanout Grate Cover

Can anyone suggest an appropriate grate cover for the two recessed sewer cleanout "ditches" that are in the picture? One is approximately 15" x 11" and the other is approximately 16" x 11".

Thanks in advance for your help...

or just cover them with plywood

you can also build a grate by stacking metal bars sideways with spacers in between, bolting the whole thing together

I had plywood there and it started to rot from ground moisture I guess. Anyhow, I may try your metal bar idea.

Thanks...

use 1/4 mesh and then top with cinder blocks
