Material/coating to prevent burning surface

Material/coating to prevent burning surface

Finishing the swimming pool at my parents house I noticed the door which shuts off the pool's engine (circled green) being made of steel might be burning hot in summer time which can be dangerous for bare feet

Does anyone know of any material I can coat or cover the stainless steel cover which allows it to still be opened but prevents it from being too hot to the touch?

I saw some thermal coatings might reduce heat absorption but might not be sufficient?
