Custom Plate Covers
The perfect fit, time after time
American Metalcraft is the only manufacturer to offer custom round and oval covers to fit plates, platters, and bowls. Foodservice operators need only send a sample dish to American Metalcraft. Plate covers are then custom-made over the rim of the plate for a perfect fit.

Manufactured from durable 18-8 stainless steel, American Metalcraft plate covers are heat retaining, odor resistant, and won't chip, crack, flake, burn or melt. Knobs, cross-bars, and finger holes are available in most styles. The standard finish is polished on the sides and satin on the top. All satin or all mirror finish is also available.

1. Plate covers are custom fitted over the rim of the plate with allowance for some normal size variation in commercial china. Covers are approximately 2" (5 cm) high over the rim of the plate. Extra high and lower height covers are also available.
   
   
2. Sample plates are required with all new orders for custom sizing. In most cases we guarantee our covers will stack with your customer's china.
   
   
3. To ensure secure stacking, a "well" is formed in the top of the cover that matches the foot of the plate. This stacking feature offers safe multiple meal carrying and cuts down on serving time.

1. Since commercial china will vary in size, it is best to have the china company provide a sample for plate cover sizing. If this is not possible, measure 5 plates at their widest point and submit the largest one with your order. This assures us of not only furnishing a cover that fits over the rim of the plate properly, but also enables us to custom design a "well" in the top of the cover for stacking.
   
   
2. Send the sample plate(s) to American Metalcraft with your purchase order for pricing confirmation and for custom fit covers. Only prices quoted after receipt of sample plate(s) are guaranteed.
   
   
3. Some plates and oval platters with wide bases and oblong platters may not fall into the category indicated by their top outside dimensions.
   
   
4. Custom fit covers are manufactured approximately 1/8" larger than the sample plate provided. This will allow for some normal variation in the size of the china.
   
   
5. Most plate cover reorders need only reference and old American Metalcraft invoice number and date.
   
   
6. Make a photocopy of the backstamp and keep it with your copy of the purchase order.
   
   
7. No returns on custom made covers manufactured correctly.

Note: If you have china from more than one manufacturer, or from different lots, make sure you measure 5 from each and submit the largest and smallest of each.
