FAQs
What bin sizes does this lid fit?
This lid is designed to fit KetoPlastics round galvanised steel bins with capacities of 40L, 45L, and 55L. It is essential to measure your bin's diameter (approx. 380mm or 14 inches) to ensure compatibility.
Is this lid suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the lid is made from strong, durable galvanised steel and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
Can this lid be used for storing food?
While it can be used for storing dry goods like animal feed, it is not rated as food-grade. For human consumption food storage, using a dedicated food-safe container is recommended. Ensure it is thoroughly cleaned and dried before storing any non-waste items.
What are the dimensions of the lid?
The lid has an approximate diameter of 14 inches (380mm) and features a lip measuring approximately 35mm.
Does this product come with a bin?
No, this is a replacement lid only. It does not include the bin itself.
How should I clean the lid?
Clean the lid with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use mild soap and water, rinse, and dry completely. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Where is this lid manufactured?
This KetoPlastics replacement metal bin lid is manufactured in the UK.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not fit securely
Double-check the diameter of your bin's rim. This lid is designed for 380mm (14 inches) diameter bins. Ensure you are not trying to fit it on a bin with a significantly different diameter or an open-top style bin.
Lid appears loose after placing on the bin
Verify that the lip of the lid is correctly seated over the rim of the bin. The 35mm lip is designed to grip the bin's edge; ensure it is fully engaged all the way around.
Rust spots appearing on the lid
Minor rust spots can occur on galvanised steel over time, especially if constantly exposed to moisture. Clean the affected area with a soft brush, wash with mild soap and water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Consider applying a thin coat of appropriate metal protectant if this is a recurring issue in a harsh environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This lid requires no assembly. Simply place it on top of a compatible KetoPlastics round galvanised steel bin. Ensure the lid sits flush with the rim of the bin.
Compatibility:
- This lid is specifically designed as a replacement for KetoPlastics round galvanised steel bins.
- It fits bins with capacities of 40L, 45L, and 55L.
- Crucially, please measure the diameter of your existing bin body before purchasing. The lid has an approximate diameter of 14 inches (380mm) with a 35mm lip. Ensure this measurement matches your bin's rim diameter for a secure fit.
Care:
- To clean, wipe the lid with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the galvanised surface.
- While galvanised steel offers good rust resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture in certain environments may lead to surface discoloration or rust spots over time. Drying the lid after exposure to rain is recommended.
- Store in a dry place when not in use for extended periods.
