Hide 12 in. Pool Deck Skimmer Lid Kit, 5/8 in. to 7/8 in. Material Depth (2 cm)

The Hide HSL12-0.8 is a complete 12 in. square skimmer cover kit that lets you set your own deck material into the lid, so the skimmer blends into the paving instead of sitting there as a plain plastic disc. This is the 0.8 depth version, for inlay material between 5/8 in. and 7/8 in. thick, roughly 2 cm.

Choosing the depth

Hide offers the 12 in. cover in 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, 2.0 and 2.5 in. depths. Measure your paver, tile or stone and order the matching kit. This 0.8 depth is not suitable for poured concrete; if you want to match a concrete deck, use the 1.6 in., 2.0 in. or 2.5 in. kit instead.

Installation and use

The kit based range is meant to make ordering simple for a new pool or landscaping project. Once the cover is in and the material is set, it lifts out for access to the skimmer basket and goes back flush with the deck.
