Gas meter box cover

[gassafe]

Does anyone know what gas meter box cover would be a direct fit for this backplate?

the customer bought a big brown one off eBay, would have had to cut it to bits to make it fit!

Thanks

best place to get one is from a neighbouring house


the meter has signs of corrosion, call the grid and try and get one for free?

Thanks, I will probs need to go back and measure as the mark 1 & mark 2 are different widths it seems!!

Why do they make everything so complicated

Mark one hooks over mark two hooks and has the two studs at top and two at bottom. You could just change the backplate

BES do them as well, but as suggested, pop along the street and nick one from an empty house,
