Intermatic WP3100C Weatherproof Electrical Outlet Cover - Extreme Temperature Resistance, Heavy-Duty Construction, Versatile Design & Multi-Configurable, Easy Install, Secure Fit for Outdoor In-Use

The power cord must traverse thru the box in a way that allows the user to close the box tightly. The molded plastic box is designed with a few potential cord openings so that the user can choose the best configuration for his set up. Once you choose the opening(s) that work(s) for you, you have to remove the small plastic piece covering those portals. A simple hole puncher worked great for removing the plastic, without damaging the box itself. The hole puncher didn't punch a hole, but grabbed the plastic firmly so that it could be bent gently back and forth until it easily tore off. If your hands aren't very strong, (I'm a senior female), you might struggle to get the flip cover attached to the box. I was ultimately able to do it, but it wasn't easy. it might be a good idea to try to install the box with the cover already attached, or at least practice installing it before screwing in the box. The whole process took about twenty minutes after watching the videos. It would have been faster if I had had a power screw driver. Would recommend this product.

I looked at quite a few weatherproof covers for external outlets and decided to try this one based on price and reviews. You can use this cover for vertical or horizontally mounted outlets. It comes with everything you need to mount this on an external outlet with either a GFCI outlet or a regular outlet. There look to be more robust covers available but I think this one is definitely one that I will be buying again in my landscape lighting business.

These weatherproof outdoor outlet covers are exactly what I needed to keep my outdoor electrical outlets safe from the elements. I live in an area with unpredictable weather, from heavy rain to extreme sun, and I wanted a reliable solution to protect my outdoor outlets. These covers have been perfect!The installation was incredibly easy, and the covers fit securely over my outlets. They’re made of durable, high-quality materials that feel like they will hold up to years of use. I love the fact that they are designed to be fully weatherproof, and the seals are tight, so no moisture or debris gets in.What’s also great is that they allow for easy access to the outlets without compromising the protection. The hinged design is convenient, and it’s simple to plug in appliances when needed and close it back up securely.These outlet covers give me peace of mind knowing my outlets are safe from rain, snow, and dirt. If you need to protect your outdoor outlets, I highly recommend these weatherproof covers. They do the job and look great too!

This cover works well, once installed. The trick is to just barely start the device screws and then slip the proper insert over the screws, and then tighten each screw gradually. Make sure the screws stay in the keyhole slots until fully tightened. I like the fact that it is not as deep as other covers, and does not obstruct passage. Works horizontally or vertically.

Will be repurchasing again to replace other outdoor outlets. Keeps water out and protects the switch during severe weather. Durable and great quality for price.

Good product, good price. Sturdy and very easy to install. Took five minutes.

Just what I was needing!

The instructions say to snap the cover on. With tremendous force I got the left side on. The right side I had to hold the inside of the gray piece to keep from bending and hit the cover with a mallet to get it to go on. It worked, but not easily.
