Anyone know where i could get some metal grate style covers custom made? I have two 36x68 window well covers and the prices for plexiglas covers are insane.
why cover them?

and how much are the plexi's?
i use plexiglass sheets that are cut a few inches bigger than the hole. a few spikes on the outside edge of the window well. then lay the plexi against the window and up against the spikes. as it sits, it curls or curves down or inward a bit. works like a charm at keeping water out. the sides are open though. but, not enough room to crawl or fall into.
Exactly!! You need to be able to get out of it from the basement in case of fire.Also, whatever you use just remember, somebody may have to get out of that window well cover someday.
