Certified protection. Fast delivery. Zero excuses.
When fire safety is non negotiable, your meter protection cannot be an afterthought. Our fire rated meter overboxes are tested, certified, and trusted across UK projects where compliance is mandatory.We build overboxes that keep utilities protected, maintain compartmentation, and satisfy Building Control on the first inspection. Manufactured in the UK. Tested up to 120 minutes. Delivered in days not weeks.
Fire integrity is the backbone of safe construction. Any opening around utilities can cause failure in a compartment if it is not correctly protected.
A poor quality or non compliant meter box risks sign off. It also risks lives. Ours protect both.At Rapid Access we manufacture overboxes that preserve compartmentation, secure essential utilities, and help your project stay on programme with confidence.
