SW Minnesota | The other day I was checking all our corn bins to see if the contents were staying in good condition. We have 2 newer MFS grain bins and the manholes on these 2, well, they SUCK! I'm not a large person by any means but I have trouble getting in and out of these bins. And I found out the hard way that the underside of the rolled-over edge around the perimeter of the manhole is SHARP - I cut the inside of my thumb on it. The 3 older MFS bins in the line don't have this problem - they have nice large manholes. My question is - does anyone know of a company that makes an aftermarket retrofit kit to make a bin manhole larger and more user-friendly? I would sure be interested in upgrading these manholes if I could. The engineering on the rest of the bin is great - no complaints. | |

Retrofitting a larger manhole into an existing grain bin?
