Manhole cover insert thingy?

[redlee]

How do all, i've got a kitchen floor to tile and there's a rectangular access cover/manhole in the middle of the floor. Does anybody make a tileable insert? The builder wanted me to tile straight onto the metal cover, i've had a look at the schluter website but can't see anything suitable does such a thing exist?
Cheers
Lee.

Yes you can get them....for tiling into...

If you have inserted manhole cover the screed should be bedded within the insert but gauged to the depth of the tile and adhesive

Wickes do them amongst others

As john said..wickes do them...about £30 odd quid....jewsons will as well i think...but you need to screed some of them to depth as mentioned above.

Ahhhhh ok so a standard recessed manhole cover, nothing tile specific then.
