Security well covers

In combination, a window well having a window well radius, a security well cover structure mounted on said window well, the window well including an upright arcuate wall, the upright arcuate wall having a bead at its upper end, the security well cover structure having a multi-sided angular flange structure with upright sides all having a common cover radius slightly larger than the window well radius for seated engagement on top of said bead, an elongated closure plate, means joining opposite ends of the closure plate to opposite ends of said multi-sided angular flange structure, a piece of wire mesh sized to act as a closure for said security well cover, means attaching outer margins of said mesh to said multi-sided angular flange structure and to said elongated rear closure plate in unitary assembly therewith, the securing well cover being sized to rest on top of the bead on the window well, and manually disengaged latchable bracket means secured to an underside of said security well cover structure accessible only from an inside of the window well securing the window well at circumferentially spaced intervals to the security well cover structure in locked assembly together.

In a security well cover structure to be mounted on a window well having an upright arcuate wall with a semi-circular window well bead, the improvement of the security well cover structure having a five-sided angular flange structure with five upright sides, an elongated rear closure plate, means joining opposite ends of the closure plate to opposite ends of said five-sided angular flange structure, a piece of wire mesh sized to act as a closure for said security well cover, means attaching outer margins of said mesh to said five-sided angular flange structure and to said elongated rear closure plate in unitary assembly therewith, the security well cover being sized to rest on top of a generally semi-circular window well, and manually disengageable latchable bracket means accessible only from an underside of the window well cover when placed over a window well for securing the window well cover at circumferentially spaced intervals in locked assembly together with a generally arcuate window well bead.

In an angulated security well cover structure to be mounted on a window well having an upright arcuate wall with a semi-circular window well bead, the improvement of a six-sided security well cover having a five-sided angular flange structure, the five-sided angular flange structure providing five upright sides all having a common cover radius, an elongated rear closure plate comprising a sixth side of the six-sided security well cover, means joining opposite ends of the closure plate to opposite ends of said five-sided angular flange structure, a piece of wire mesh sized to act as a closure for said security well cover, means attaching outer margins of said mesh to said five-sided angular flange structure and to said elongated rear closure plate in unitary assembly therewith.

A method of manufacture of a window well cover comprising the steps of forming a series of rim angles, bias cutting ends of the rim angles, butt engaging the ends of the rim angles to form a five-sided rim, welding the bias cut ends of the rim angles in fixed assembly, forming an elongated angular rim angle and welding its opposite ends on top of underlying ones of the rim angles, cutting a piece of wire mesh having a peripheral configuration approximating an interior shape defined by the rim angles, and welding the mesh to legs of the rim angle on an underside thereof.
