Abstract

A plumbing device used on a commercial grade toilet comprises an ovular shaped lid (3), spring-loaded locking mechanism comprising of two hollow metal tubes (5) and (7) with two C-shaped metal pieces (8) and (9), and handles attached to both the ovular shaped lid and spring-loaded locking mechanism, designed to restrict access to the inside of a toilet bowl when the toilet is out of order, and or not ready to be used to prevent any foreign objects or liquids from entering the toilet, and or plumbing system, as this will create a biohazard. The ovular shaped lid is attached to the spring-loaded locking mechanism via an angular hinge (11) so as to create easy access to the inside of the toilet bowl without having to remove the entire device when access is needed. The handle (6) is attached to the ovular shaped lid so as to make opening and closing the lid effortless. The same can be said for the handle (4) attached to the spring-loaded locking mechanism. The L-shaped metal piece with holes (2) is attached to the ovular shaped lid so as to provide the ability to lock and secure the device via a padlock (14).
