ACO Passavant Detego

Manhole covers for a harmonious appearance

Manhole Covers That Work – And Look Good Doing It

At ACO Passavant Detego, we believe functionality comes first – and when it comes to manhole covers and floor access doors, everyone agrees: they simply have to work. But why stop there? Architects and landscape designers also appreciate when these elements blend seamlessly into their surroundings or meet specific design standards.

That’s where we come in. As specialists in the field, we offer solutions that combine performance with aesthetics. Our products are trusted by landscape architects for the creative freedom and design flexibility they provide.


Discreet Manhole Covers by ACO Passavant Detego – Where Function Meets Urban Aesthetics

As cities grow and evolve, preserving their unique charm becomes more important than ever. Urban development, new infrastructure, and modern mobility concepts must blend seamlessly into the cityscape—especially in historic centers, near listed buildings, museums, churches, town halls, or tourist landmarks. In these sensitive areas, manhole covers and floor access doors should never disrupt the visual harmony.

Smart Solutions for High Design and Functional Demands

Whether it’s smoke extraction vents above underground garages in pedestrian zones, emergency exits near heritage buildings, or transformer stations in parks and gardens—these are complex challenges for landscape architects and urban planners. At ACO Passavant Detego, we make these concerns disappear—just like our covers do.

Custom Covers with Custom Surfaces

We specialize in tailor-made manhole covers and floor access solutions that meet the highest standards in both performance and design. From watertight and heavy-duty options to fire-rated and insulated models, we engineer solutions to fit your exact needs.

When surface aesthetics matter—such as in heritage zones or design-driven projects—we offer recessed covers that can be filled on-site with paving, stone, or other materials to match their surroundings. Almost any size is possible. One of our largest installations, located at Place de Metz in Luxembourg, spans 2.8 x 8.32 meters and is a prime example of seamless visual integration.

From Design to Installation – All from One Source

As a full-service provider, we don’t just deliver custom covers—we also handle installation and ongoing maintenance. With ACO Passavant Detego, you get a complete solution that’s as reliable as it is discreet.
