Tray
Transform a banker’s grate into a bed tray by simply adding Plexiglas and chrome handles.

Accent Lamp
Add wiring to an old-fashioned gas pump cover to create an accent lamp.

Shelf
Convert a bank teller grate into a shelf by placing a mirror behind the grate and attaching black chains for support.
