Water Butt Lids

A good lid keeps leaves, insects and light out of your water butt, which helps keep the water fresh. It also stops curious children and pets getting in.

Here you’ll find child-safe locking lids, replacement lids for popular butts and simple mesh covers for open barrels. Measure the opening before you order. For more on fresh water, read our water butt cleaning guide.
