Discover the benefits of a light well cover that will protect your cellar:

WAREMA light well covers use a flat aluminium frame designed to sit over the existing light well grille.

The covers can be installed in different ways, including on inaccessible light wells.

A cover for the light well in a cellar or basement is very useful. It offers a range of benefits, including:

  • Protection against dirt and debris: The cover prevents leaves, twigs, dirt and rubbish from building up in the light well.
  • Insect screen: Light well covers keep unwanted insects such as midges, spiders and beetles out. This makes your cellar or basement a more pleasant place to be.
  • Covering the existing grate: The cover sits over the existing grate and closes the light well opening with a fine stainless steel mesh.
  • Aesthetic appearance: With their stylish design and high-grade materials, light well covers can improve the external appearance of your house.

The frame of the light well cover is made from aluminium and the transparent mesh is made from stainless steel. The materials are selected for the intended light well application.

In the same way as with insect screens on windows and doors, you should remove dust and pollen from light well covers at the end of the summer. To do this, carefully clean the mesh with a soft brush and, if necessary, wipe it with a damp sponge or cleaning glove.

The covers can be installed in different ways, including on inaccessible light wells. The cover for the light well should be fitted directly onto the existing grate. Installing it in other ways can result in injury or damage to the product. Your local specialised retailer will be happy to advise you on the basis of your individual circumstances and requirements.

Your WAREMA specialised retailer will ensure that your light well cover is correctly and tightly fitted. The light well cover has brush seals that seal the cover underneath or against the wall.

Yes, the light well covers from WAREMA are made to measure. The maximum order width of the covers is 1800 mm and the maximum order height is 1000 mm.
