Floor mounted (aka semi-concealed or semi-buried) gas meter boxes are particularly susceptible to damage as they can be stepped on or have things dropped on them.  Also the sharp edges of a broken GRP box at ground level are a hazard.

Previously Ritherdons only manufactured and supplied replacement lids for this type of gas meter box.  However, we now have three options for repairing them:

1. Replacement lids - the R24M and R24H lids for repairing Mitras boxes and Hepworth boxes respectively.
2. Replacement lid and frame units if the damage is too great simply to replace the lid and, again, there are units for Mitras and Hepworth boxes.
3. *Replacement lid and body units for pre-payment meter boxes (see the case study about how we designed this product with Langstane housing).

Like the rest of the Ritherdon range, the R24 units greatly increase the longevity and security of the GRP meter box that they repair.  The R24 units are also powder coated brown (note the colour rendition in the photos isn't perfect), so that they match the plastic boxes.

As with the rest of the range, fitting the R24s is very easy.  An R24 lid fits the meter box in the same way as the original plastic lid and the lid and frame units fasten through the plastic box with a screw and nut.  All the necessary fittings are supplied with the units.

* Ring us for prices for the R24 Tall (for pre-payment meter boxes)
