A closure arrangement comprises a hub 314, a head 320 adapted to be disengage able from the hub 314. A davit arm 300 is mounted on a swivel mount 316 provided on the hub 314, and the swivel mount 316 is arranged to allow the davit arm 300 to swivel in a plane. The davit arm is free to move in a longitudinal direction in the plane, and to rotate about the longitudinal direction. The closure arrangement is further provided with an adjustment device adapted to adjust the position of the head 320 relative to the hub 314 in a direction perpendicular to the plane.
