SPECIFICATIONS – TILE INSERT STRIP DRAINS (LINEAR DRAIN COVERS)

Inconspicuous surface drainage!

A modern strip drainage solution for outdoor areas—designed to minimise visible hardware and replace the look of a traditional drain grate. Your surface finish becomes the feature, while the channel drain below does the work.

Modular tile inlays in 1210mm lengths, available in 4 popular depths and two widths to suit common drain channel and channel drain sizes.

Product Features:

• 316 stainless steel for long-term durability and corrosion resistance in exterior applications.
• The cover is compatible with popular exterior drain channel / channel drain profiles, available in different depths and lengths.
• Installation flexibility: adjust height and accommodate gradient to suit site set-out.
• HIDE Tile Inlay Covers suit exterior stone thicknesses of up to 42mm.
• 40mm tile insert linear drain cover is compatible only with Everhard channel
• Discreet with minimum hardware exposure—only 2mm stainless steel at surface level (a clean drain strip look).
• Factory cut & prefabricated 2.4m corner kits for faster set-out.
• Butting 1210mm modular lids to cover any length of the drainage run—ideal for long strip drains.
• No grate to collect surface sediment—ideal where you want to avoid grate drainage issues and keep cleaning simple.
• Deep channel options allow limited fall requirements
• Most external stone thicknesses are compatible with the HIDE cover system.
• Tile edge trim and end caps available for a clean enclosed finish.
• Retrofit options.
• Earthing-free insulation.

Please note black everhard/reln channel for illustration purposes only and must be sourced separately.

• ED covers suit Everhard Easy Drain channel (including ED Compact) for external strip drainage runs.
  
  
• SM covers suit Reln Storm Drain and Reln Straight-Line Storm Mate—common stormwater channel options.
  
  
• 40mm covers: Everhard channel only.

Create your own water channel in the slab, width and depth to support the selected HIDE Bridge and drainage requirements of the project.

Hide standard bridges are in every kit; however, Extended Height Bridges are also available separately in packs of 5, allowing for retrofitting, levelling beds and custom-formed channels.  

The HIDE Bridge is independent of the Cover and the Channel; this allows flexibility or adjustment between the channel and cover height. 

All HIDE bridges are adjustable in height:

• Cut down the legs in the marked 5mm increments.
• Fix the supplied Height levellers or your own ceramic packers between HIDE cover and the bridges for extended height options.

Cover End Caps are a finishing option and are available as an extra to allow modular installation. 

Corner Drain layout is made easy with no onsite cutting as it is fully fabricated at the HIDE factory.

The supplied stainless steel cutting disc allows the HIDE Cover to be cut down to match tile size or grout lines.   

Safe practices and care required

NOTE:

• Suitable for PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC only.
• No ACID / CHEMICAL WASH contact by the contractor or homeowner ever.

Align the drain channel during set-out so the finished tile insert sits clean and straight—this is where channel drain planning makes the biggest difference.

Align the channel with the supplied plastic grate inserted to set the width during the slab pour.

Looking good right?
Set out and plan the installation to suit the finished surface. It's an aesthetic thing.
