Strong metal cover for mechanics pit

Strong metal cover for mechanics pit

I need to cover a large mechanics pit in a garage so that no vehicle wheel can slip into it. I would like to use some kind of very strong metal sheeting, which would have to be custom made to fit I suppose. Someone said that they some time ago they had seen a light but strong honeycombed sheeting supported in a metal frame in a garage and that this is what I should try to obtain or have made.

1) Anyone know what this stuff is called ?

2) Anyone know where to get it or get it made ?

 

I would be most grateful if an engineer or mechanic could advise.

Thanks - Ian

me personaly i would weld in some cross sections of steel then get some half inch steel mesh. as long your cross steel underneeth is not to far apart it should be no different than a car trailer witch cars drive up on all the time.
