Frequently Asked Questions

[vc_row][vc_column][title_classic style=”style3″ title=”Answers to our most common questions are below:” title_color=”#333333″ title_size=”24″ title_padding=”0″][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_accordion shape=”square” color=”white” active_section=”1″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Why do I need the inside dimensions of my well?” tab_id=”1441544544028-a512eed0-aac9″][vc_column_text]The brackets on the Adjust-A-Grate rest on the wall of the well and basically suspend the grate inside the opening of the window well so that the majority of the surface of the grate is flush with the surface of your window well.

It’s important to use only the inside dimensions of your well when determining the correct model grate. This ensures the grate can be installed correctly, fitting inside the opening of your well.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Why are there a range of dimensions on each model of grate?” tab_id=”1524087052740-afb02de9-263e”][vc_column_text]Each loop on the grates (the pieces that run parallel to the house) adjust lengthwise anywhere between the two dimensions shown for that particular model of grate.

The Adjust-A-Grate does not adjust front to back – the range indicated on the projection out from the house is what we have determined as acceptable for that particular model of grate. When installing you will position the grate basically in the center of the well opening.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Is the grate bolted down or bolted to the well?” tab_id=”1441545570522-fdfd6811-a32e”][vc_column_text]Modern basement windows are designed for emergency egress from the home. For that reason, our grates are not bolted or mounted to the window well, as you’d never want to trap yourself or your family members inside the basement. We want you, and your family, to easily and safely exit your home should you ever need to.

The grate itself is simply resting on the window well. However, the design of the grate gives the appearance of being bolted to the well. Oftentimes burglars looking for an easy entry to a home will be deterred simply because they will not take the time to investigate the grate.

However, for complete peace of mind we recommend the Optional Security Kit with Quick Release which allows the grate to be locked in place so that no one from above the well can gain access to the well or window but still allows quick emergency egress from inside the home.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”How long will it take to receive my order?” tab_id=”1441545612714-da91a162-603d”][vc_column_text]Posted below is a chart showing UPS Ground service transit times for our window well covers to many major cities. Generally speaking, if you order your basement window well grates, window well escape ladders and/or the optional security kits prior to 1:00 pm Mountain Time, they will be shipped on the day you place your order.

We accept Discover, MasterCard and Visa as payment and your credit card will be charged on the day your order is shipped.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”How do I know if my local Home Depot or Lowe’s stores carry the Adjust-A-Grates?” tab_id=”1441544544168-05b8f250-fff2″][vc_column_text]Many of our standard products are available at most Home Depot & Lowe’s locations up and down the front range from Cheyenne to Pueblo, as well as some Home Depot Stores in Utah.

If you are looking for us at the store, make sure to ask for us by name. We’ve had on many occasions store employee’s tell customers they don’t carry window well grates as our product doesn’t look like the heavy custom iron grates or thin plastic bubbles most people associate with window well covers.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”I want a different color – can the grates be painted?” tab_id=”1524086772480-5aeee6ae-a609″][vc_column_text]Our grates are designed to be maintenance free. We do not recommend painting the grates as it is difficult to get paint to adhere to aluminum.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1441601774820{margin-top: 100px !important;}”][vc_column][title_classic style=”style3″ alignment=”center” title=”Still Have A Question?
