• the emergency exit enclosure comprises a window and/or a door;
• the removable cover comprises an external portion and an internal portion;
• the external portion and internal portion are integral;
• the external portion includes a planar exterior surface extending from opposite annular edges forming the peripheral flange, the annular edges extending from the exterior surface at the peripheral flange to an abutment surface contacting the wall;
