The Unikey Universal Manhole Key Kit is a versatile and heavy-duty tool designed to make lifting and removing manhole covers simple, safe, and efficient. In this video, we demonstrate exactly how to use the Unikey system to access inspection chambers and drain covers of all types.

To use, begin by selecting the appropriate key attachments from the kit — these fit a wide range of cover types and slot configurations, including T-key, slotted, and square designs.

The Unikey Universal Kit is ideal for drainage engineers, utility workers, and construction professionals who regularly need to remove heavy or seized covers. Its adaptable design means you only need one kit to tackle multiple access points, saving both time and effort.

With its strong build, compact storage case, and quick interchange system, the Unikey offers a safe and convenient way to lift manhole covers without risk of injury or equipment damage.
