Surface Cover System Benefits

Surface covers provide essential protection for electrical connections while offering installation flexibility in retrofit and surface-mounted applications. Unlike flush-mounted alternatives, surface covers accommodate existing wall conditions and provide easy access for maintenance. The raised profile design offers enhanced protection against physical damage while maintaining professional appearance standards required in commercial environments.

Why Choose Steel Construction?

Steel construction delivers superior durability and longevity compared to plastic alternatives, making it the preferred choice for commercial and industrial applications. The material's inherent strength provides excellent impact resistance and maintains dimensional stability under temperature variations. Steel covers also offer better grounding continuity and electromagnetic shielding properties, essential for sensitive electrical equipment installations and code compliance requirements.
