The Budaguard™ Heelguard Galvanised Trench Box Grates are a durable drop-in drainage solution built from hot-dip galvanised steel for long-term corrosion resistance in external applications.

Available in four section profiles — 125mm, 150mm, 200mm, and 300mm wide — these trench box grates come in standard lengths and can be easily cut and joined on site to suit your installation.

The grates bolt securely to the trench box to prevent movement under load and deter theft. They can also be removed using an allen key for cleaning and maintenance.

Class B Load Rated and compliant with AS 3996:2019, Budaguard™ Heelguard Grates are suitable for pedestrian areas and residential driveways.

The wedge wire heelguard pattern features edge bars to eliminate sharp edges, tapered cross bars that reduce dirt build-up, and narrow openings to help prevent leaves and debris entering the drainage channel.
