Exterior Drain Covers
Drains are essential—your drainage grates don’t need to be on show.
Standard grates interrupt good design, catch debris, and can become a slip or trip risk. HIDE Drain Covers are a drain cover system designed to replace traditional grated drain and drainage grate solutions—so the drain access stays functional, but visually discreet.
Each cover is a tile drain insert: set your own tile, stone, paver or wet-pour concrete into the lid, so the outdoor drainage cover matches the surrounding finish. The result is a cover for outdoor drain access that looks intentional in premium hardscapes.
Designed to blend in: the HIDE inlay lid becomes part of the surface, not a separate grate. It’s a practical choice for anyone wanting a cleaner look than drains and grates in high-visibility outdoor areas.
Safe, sleek, and built to last: engineered for external use using 316L marine grade stainless steel, the flush-fit finish supports safer foot traffic and a cleaner detailing outcome. For the trade, it’s a dependable solution when you want the drain to perform—without compromising the finished surface.

Safe practices and care required
NOTE:
- Suitable for PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC only.
- No ACID / CHEMICAL WASH contact by the contractor or homeowner ever.
Allow for expansion
- DO NOT fill the void with grout or a filler between the lid and the inlay stone to allow for expansion and contraction of the steel.
- Cut the stone carefully to provide a neat finish without fillers between the lid and the inlaid stone. As outlined in the installation instructions, there needs to be a small gap.
Consider and plan installation before project commences
Confirm water flow direction, finished levels, and the required outdoor drainage capacity before set-out.

Consult your drain layer for site water flow and the most suitable sized HIDE drain cover and style.

Fill the recess with a mortar bed then push in edge protector until it fits in with its surrounds.

Check levels and alignment before finishing.
Set out and plan the installation to suit the finished surface. Good set-out protects the final look.
