HIDE Infill Covers
The Perfect Finishing Touch for Outdoor Spaces
When it comes to seamless, stylish, and functional finishes for outdoor areas, HIDE Inlay Covers set the benchmark in modern design. Made from premium-grade 316 stainless steel, HIDE Access Covers are the ideal solution for blending access points like skimmer lids, drain covers, and utility covers into your landscape or hardscape.
Key Benefits of HIDE Covers:
- Unmatched Aesthetic Appeal
HIDE Covers seamlessly integrate with tiles, pavers, natural stone, timber decking, exposed aggregate, concrete, artificial turf, and other exterior surfaces—delivering a flawless, blemish-free finish. - Exceptional Durability
Crafted from marine-grade 316 stainless steel, HIDE Covers are engineered to endure extreme weather and heavy use—delivering long-term performance and peace of mind. - Safe & Practical Design
HIDE's flush-fitting system effectively eliminates trip hazards and minimizes slip risks (when slip-rated inlays are used), even in wet conditions. The cover sits perfectly flush and requires the HIDE Safety Key for removal—preventing unauthorised access and enhancing security. Designed for pedestrian traffic, HIDE Covers meet European Standard BS EN 124, Class A15, ensuring compliance for walkways, patios, and landscaped areas. - Easy Installation
HIDE’s ready-to-install kits include all components needed for fast, efficient on-site installation. Our 40mm-deep kits are also suitable for wet-pour concrete applications—making them ideal for new builds and retrofits alike. - Versatile Applications
Ideal for pools, patios, courtyards, and outdoor living areas in both residential and commercial projects, HIDE’s award-winning covers offer seamless integration across a wide range of exterior environments. - Proven Quality & Trust
Proudly Australian made and owned, HIDE offers a 10-year warranty and industry-leading support. As Australia’s #1 Skimmer Cover, HIDE is trusted by professionals worldwide—and was awarded International Best New Pool Building Product at the 2019 Pool, Spa & Patio Expo in New Orleans.
A Complete Kit
1. Safety Key
A stainless steel tool to enable the installed HIDE lid to be safely and easily opened/closed. Kits 40mm in depth have two keys.
2. Infill Cover
This 316 stainless steel cover holds the inlay (landscape) materials you’ve chosen, e.g. tile, paver, concrete, decking, etc.
3. Frame
This stainless steel frame is installed flush with the surface of your landscaped area. It protects the coping/surrounds from chipping/breakage when the inlay lid is opened/closed.
4. Height Adjuster
The installer can use this 2 mm thick perspex insert to add thickness to your inlay. This ‘packer’, combined with two layers of adhesive, can provide up to 8mm extra height if the inlay material is not thick enough to achieve a flush finish on the top of the inlay lid.

A specially formulated adhesive for bonding your inlay material to the stainless steel.
