CAPTIVE HINGE ACCESS ASSEMBLY
The Captive Hinge Access Assembly is an advanced solution that addresses many of the
dangerous situations now present in the market such as cover theft, ergonomics, safety,
pressure relief, and security. Once a cover with a captive hinge pin is installed, the cover
cannot be removed.
A cover can be made captive before delivery,
during installation, or after installation.

Safe Cover Removal
Our patent pending hinge design allows the
cover to open up to 120°, where it rests in a
safe and secure position. From the 120°
position, the cover can be safely removed.
Our patent pending
ERGO hinge design
also has a safety
catch at 90° to
prevent accidental
closing.
Cam Lock Security Option
The cam lock provides improved
security to frame and cover
assemblies, and also eliminates
loose and missing fasteners.
The cam lock wrench is only
removable when the cover is in
the locked position, so you can
be sure it is engaged.

ERGO® XL
The rugged design is clean and
maintenance free. The strut
takes up less space in the clear
opening than a traditional
spring assist. It is fully selfcontained, which avoids high
stress exposed coils.
Optional Lift Assist
Optional lift assist is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel mechanical
spring strut that reduces the lifting force of the cover to less than
50 pounds. It is available only on the ERGO® XL.
ejco.com
Made without internal gases or
seals, the struts have an
effective operating temperature
range of -30° F to 400° F. The
durability has been tested at
over 150,000 cycles.
