Abstract:

Grade-matching cover systems for use with a utility cover installed to cover a utility access hole formed in a ground surface having a ground surface grade proximate the utility access hole. The cover systems include a grade-matching member, a surface member, and, optionally, a base member. The grade-matching member defines a cover grade selected to substantially match the ground surface grade. The surface member adopts the cover grade defined by the grade-matching member and has a top surface opposite the grade-matching member that is substantially coplanar with the ground surface proximate the utility access hole.
