Hide Lineal Drain Cover | Tile Inlay

Strip Drainage With No Visible Grate

HIDE Linear Drain Covers (also known as strip drains, channel drains or trench drains) deliver premium outdoor drainage for landscaping and pool areas — with a clean, seamless finish and no visible drain grate. Each tile insert cover is supplied in 1210mm modular lengths in marine grade 316 stainless steel, ready to be inlaid with your choice of matching tile, stone or pavers so the drainage line blends invisibly into patios, pool surrounds and landscaped areas.

Why Choose a HIDE Linear Drain Cover?

• Seamless, designer finish — inlay the cover with your selected tile, stone or paver finish so the strip drain becomes invisible in the landscape.
• Smart 1210mm set-out — aligns naturally with common tile layouts: 3 × 400mm tiles + grout, or 2 × 600mm tiles + grout. Lengths are easy to trim on-site (a stainless steel cutting disc is included) for a perfect fit, including crazy pave and irregular stone edges.
• Four inlay depths — covers suit 10, 20, 30 and 40mm tile or stone thicknesses (8mm–42mm range), with an optional wet-pour concrete infill model at 40mm depth.
• Adjustable height & clearances — centralising tabs (a world-first in design) allow up to 10mm height adjustment, with level adjusters and adhesive included to secure components.
• No equipotential bonding required — simplifying installation around pools.
• Built to last — 316 marine grade stainless steel backed by a 20 year warranty.
• Flexible layout options — prefabricated 90° mitred corner kits, optional stainless tile edge trims, and easily removable modular lengths for maintenance access.

HIDE Linear Drain Covers in Action

Channel Compatibility & Set-Out

• 125mm width suits Everhard Easy Drain (ED) channels
• 112mm width suits Reln Storm Mate (SM) channels
• Set the channel at tile-fixing height (slab level) so the HIDE cover sits flush with the finished surface — the cover sits above the channel

Please note: the plastic drain channel (Everhard or Reln) is not supplied with the HIDE kit — purchase it separately and install according to the manufacturer's instructions. Confirm with your tiler that they understand the installation method and required set-out height before fixing the channel.
