The Red Dot
®
Deck Grommet
provides safe, economical
access to line-voltage power in outdoor raised deck
applications. Installed quickly and easily in wood or
composite decking, it allows the homeowner to access
their outdoor-rated extension cord that runs beneath
the deck from an outdoor power outlet to the Deck
Grommet
. Rugged, gasket-less construction safely
secures the electrical connection just below the deck
surface while keeping out rain, snow, ice and debris —
even while in use.
Durable, shrouded cover protects an outdoor
extension cord from impact and weather-related
damage in raised deck applications
Compact design saves space and is easily
concealed for decorating purposes
Unique cover assembly allows cord to exit while
maintaining NEMA 3R integrity to protect against
falling rain, sleet and external ice formation
when used with outdoor-rated extension cord
Snap-in cover assembly reduces installation time
and makes it easy to secure an outdoor-rated
extension cord
Black standard finish can be painted to match décor
Supplied with mounting screws for fastening to
deck and strain-relief clamp with screw for securing
an outdoor-rated extension cord (extension cord
not included)
Installs easily with just a jig saw and Phillips-head
screwdriver (tools not included)
Intended for use in decks at least 12"
above ground surface
