Do SunWolf window well covers lift easily in case of emergency?

Accepted Answer

SunWolf window well covers are designed with lightweight aluminum and polycarbonate which help make the cover easy to lift. Safety is a priority when it comes to our window well cover design, and we suggest doing trial evacuations with all family members to ensure everyone can easily escape the basement in a time of need.

Question 3

Will a SunWolf window well cover block the light into my basement?

Accepted Answer

No, quite the opposite as SunWolf window well covers are made with translucent polycarbonate, which allows maximum light into your basement egress window without sacrificing your privacy. The competition often uses clear or see-through polycarbonate which can be a danger to pets or animals as well as allowing any passer-by the ability to see through to your basement egress window.

Question 4
