Hi all, not sure if this is in the right section.
I've bought a couple of Wrekin recessed manhole covers and frames which don't seem to have any means to lift them. They have 4 screw down points which are just 10mm holes into which stainless steel bolts fix the cover. There's nowhere to slot a key in unless there's a key available I don't know about. Any help much appreciated.

I've already bought the ones I took a photo of. I was going to buy those Clarke covers but the Wrekin's were being sold off for £38 each.
Actually I've done a bit more googling and found out they are lifted with a J hook. So it will take 4 hooks and 2 people to lift it. I'm beginning to wish I had bought the Clarke's.
 
Pay once and rest easy...looks like you will have to pay twice!

Why would I do that? I can take them back to Doves if I decide against them. They are much better quality than the Clarke's covers just a bit more awkward to lift them.
