ABSTRACT:
In certain embodiments, the present invention includes a method for protecting from unauthorized access one or more ports of a system integrated into a structure for injection of a material into one or more cavities in the structure. The method includes coupling a base to the structure, the base including the one or more ports for injection of the material into the one or more cavities in the structure and one or more slots. The method further includes removably coupling a cover to the base to prevent unauthorized access to the one or more ports, the cover comprising one or more tabs each adapted to engage with a corresponding slot of the base. The cover is removably coupled to the base by positioning a locking mechanism for removably securing the cover to the base proximate a projection of the base and engaging the locking mechanism with the projection of the base to removably secure the one or more tabs of the cover in engagement with the one or more corresponding slots of the base to removably secure the cover to the base to prevent unauthorized access to the one or more ports.
