Combo units simplify installation and often cost less than purchasing components separately. They're ideal for new construction or complete window well renovations. Call (855) DRY-BSMT to see our complete window well combo options.
Window well grates provide security and debris protection while maintaining ventilation and light transmission. We install custom-fitted grates made from galvanized or powder-coated steel for long-term durability.
Grates are ideal when you want protection without completely enclosing the window well. They prevent larger debris and unauthorized access while allowing natural ventilation. Contact (855) DRY-BSMT to discuss grate options for your window wells.
Properly installed window well covers maintain emergency egress requirements while providing protection. We design all covers to open easily from inside and meet building code egress requirements.
We ensure covers don't impede emergency exit while still protecting against water infiltration, debris, and unauthorized entry. All egress window covers are tested to confirm they meet safety standards. Call (855) DRY-BSMT for code-compliant window well cover solutions.
EcoSpect offers rectangular, curved, and steel window well covers to fit different window well shapes and architectural styles. Covers can be clear polycarbonate for maximum light, or solid steel for maximum protection and security.
All covers include proper drainage, secure mounting, and easy access for emergency egress. We can also create custom covers for unique window well configurations. Contact (855) DRY-BSMT to see cover options for your windows.
