outdoor drain guard help

[presse1]

Hello,

I have steps in my backyard leading down to a door that enters my basement.
At the base of the steps is a drain that no longer has a guard on it.
I need to replace it, but can't find anything that will fit.
Everything I see online is round and this drain has a flat edge on one side.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look to find one?

Are u sure flat piece does not come out looks like a round grate will work once that piece is removed

And why is the water in it if it is a storm drain

I would suggest going to a plumbing supply house with that picture. The new one will be round with that flat area, and will have a clamp and screw near the flat edge, such that, when the grate is installed, the screw will tighten the clamp against the bottom of the existing flat area. They use them all the time around here for curb traps.

Nice call. I did a quick image search " curb trap drain cover " and got this.
