Was surprised by the price difference between these 2 models from
manholecovers.co.uk :-

MHC7122/DSL/AK - 10T 300x300mm Galv Steel Recess Tray D/Seal 4 allen
head Screws - £88.71 + vat carriage paid

MHC7122/DSL/AK/SSE - Stain/Steel Edge 10T 300x300mm Galv Rec D/Seal 4
allen head Screw - £198.34 + vat carrriage paid

Units identical except the second one has a stainless steel edge (the
visible part I guess).

Well, I guess galv will do. Thing will be hidden most of the time.
Any ideas to smarten up a galv edge ?

Is this for indoors?

For outdoors, the last one I bought was under £20, and that
was a heavy duty cast iron one (probably more now with the cost
of iron).

Indoors, recessed to take floor tiles etc. I was unsure whether to get
a recessed one or not since it will not really be seen (under a
relocateable breakfast bar type thing), but I want it to be flush.
Also I need a double seal, which adds a bit. Standard outdoor ones
tend to be quite large 450 x 600 smallest I've seen in the BM.

I get a price increase every few months from a supplier who makes things for
me in stainless steel, because of the constantly rising cost of the raw
material. It is exorbitantly expensive these days.
