Hide Exterior Access Covers

Conceal Every Service Point — Seamlessly

HIDE Exterior Access Covers are the perfect choice when concealing service points in outdoor areas, as they blend seamlessly into your selected surface. Made from marine grade 316L stainless steel and filled with your choice of matching tile, stone, pavers, concrete or decking, each cover sits flush with your pool deck or landscape — no more ugly plastic access plates or industrial grates spoiling the view.

Available in a wide range of sizes — 156mm, 206mm, 256mm, 306mm, 342mm and 412mm square, plus two large manhole sizes (506mm and 656mm square) — and a range of depths to suit most applications. A full polymer access cover is also available for installations where earthing is not achievable.

Access Covers Conceal Entry to All Service Points, Such As:

• Pool skimmer boxes
• IO & bolted trap screw (BTS)
• Water table pipes
• Water and balance tanks
• Taps and irrigation
• Valves and meters
• Electrical junction boxes

Why Choose a HIDE Access Cover?

• Seamless, designer finish — the inlay tray holds the same tile, paver, stone, concrete or decking as your surrounds, and the cover maintains uninterrupted board lines even in decking.
• Safe, key-only access — covers can only be opened with the HIDE Safety Key, keeping children and pets out of service points, and sit flush to eliminate trip hazards in pedestrian alfresco areas.
• Built to last — marine grade 316L stainless steel backed by a 20 year warranty covering the Safety Key, Inlay Lid and Edge Protector.
• Protects your landscape — the stainless steel edge protector prevents chips and breakages in tiled or stone surrounds every time the cover is opened and closed.
• Set-and-forget — occasional maintenance only, at little to no cost, unlike cheap lids that need regular replacement.

What's Included in Every HIDE Access Cover Kit?

• HIDE Safety Key — a stainless steel tool to safely and easily open and close the installed cover.
• HIDE Inlay Lid — a 316 stainless steel tray that holds the landscape materials of your choice.
• HIDE Edge Protector — a stainless steel frame set into a recess in the landscaped area, protecting your coping and surrounds from chipping or breakage.
• HIDE Adhesive & documentation — plus contractor installation instructions, home owner information and warranty.

Choosing the Right Size & Depth

Two quick measurements are all it takes: the clear underside opening you need to cover, and the thickness of your inlay material. HIDE access covers are available in a range of depths (from 10mm to 60mm) so the finished surface sits perfectly flush with your pool deck, paving or decking. If your cover will sit within 1.25m of the pool edge, the stainless steel should be earthed — check with your licensed electrician, or choose the polymer option where earthing isn't achievable.
