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

Good product. It fits great on outlets cut into siding on the side of a house. No problem there. There are a couple of considerations. First, You most likely need to pop out the existing and installed hard, rigid plastic plate inside the box. If you have a square outlet (example: GFI) or a rounded side outlet-pick the right black plate supplied and put it inside the box. Instructions are meager. It says snap in place but it simply fits and will be loose until you fit the eyelets over the screw heats and put down. You do not need to remove any outlet mounting screws but you do need to loosen them out a bit to fit the cover over the round screw heads and then fit the inside black plate you are using to match the design of your outlet. Everything gets moved to one direction so the screws travel into a narrower channel of the eyelet. You will see. Tighten screws. Be sure you left the back foam cover on the box. Second, before you even do anything, use needle nose or flat nose pliers to remove the punch outs for your cords. It is MUCH harder to remove the punch outs when the box is installed. It is much easier to hold the box in your hand and wiggle and pry the punch outs out. If you follow the sparse installation instructions, there is no mention of the punch outs needed to come out. Obviously there are two outlets so remove both punch outs unless you think no, you will never use two outlets at once. If you do not remove the punch outs, you cannot close the plastic cover and thus you are defeating the purpose of the cover. Third, It is a little unpleasant to snap in the clear plastic cover hinges onto the cover's hinge rods. you have to come in at the 2 o'clock position forward and push. You will have two snaps and do not panic. That means the hinges are in. There may be a small potential to break the hinges. You do not need lots of pressure. Just a small amount of firmness. The good news is once you snap your cover on, you know the drill and any other installations come easy. Be sure to install the punch outs facing down. That means you have the box right-side up

Excellent quality. Easy to install. Plenty of options for mounting. I'd foolishly been simply placing a bucket over my the outdoor GFCI outlet that was mounted to a post several feet from my swimming pool. Have probably ruined 3-4 good five gallon buckets over the years that got brittle and busted from a combination of being constantly exposed to super chlorinated water (used it to mix my powdered chlorine granules before adding to the pool) and sunlight. I spent the $7 and picked up one of these. It was super easy and straight forward to install. Looks very nice. Does exactly what it should do... keeps my outdoor GFCI outlet secure and protected from the elements. Doing it the other way not only cost me a few good five gallon buckets over the years, but three different GFCI outlets that went bad due to exposure. I figured this would be the last time I wired in a new outlet and decided to put the proper weatherproof box on it.

This was used on our gate project and gave us a way to plug the gate in where it could be protected from the rain. It worked out great.

Very easy to install. Includes adapters for GFCI, duplex and switch plates. Solid, well made. Great quality external box. Recommend

Looks great, seems durable, mostly functional. Bought this to cover the outlets that I plugged my permanent home lights into and it definitely will do the trick. The package itself does not come with any instructions at all but the amazon listing has great instructions within the photos so I used those for the install to make sure I did it correctly. Appears to be fully weatherproof and seals up nicely. The cord hole pieces were relatively easy to pop out with pliers. Might not be large enough to handle all plug types but it certainly works for what I needed it for.

Figuring out how to install this was easy. I have never done anything... constructively or install things, but I figured this out and it has protected my outlet so I must have done something right (I was also replacing one so I didnt have to find the hole to drill). I know this because the seal is good and my outlets haven't tripped since, and there have been pretty bad rain storms. I debated giving this 4 stars due to the trouble of removing the cover to change the direction. It was really hard to take off the hinges to change from vertical to horizontal, so much so I even broke a fingernail doing it. But that goes to show how sturdy it is, it is strong and that is something you would want in something that is outdoors. So five stars it is.

I wanted the closest guarantee to zero failures on a specific electical outlet that we just had installed. We decided to add Intermatic WP3100C Weatherproof Electrical Outlet Cover - Extreme Temperature Resistance to reduce any possibilities of weather interference. We have achieved our weatherproofing goal. Easy fit standard single gang cover with selectable molded switch/outlet plates. The installation is easy and very straight forward. No additional components are needed. This will cover one standard single gang outlet box.

The Intermatic WP3100C weatherproof outlet cover is okay, but not as sturdy as I expected. The plastic feels pretty flimsy and bends easily during installation, which made it harder to get a snug fit. It also doesn’t snap closed as securely as I’d like, so I’m not totally confident in how well it will hold up long-term outdoors. On the positive side, it does come with all the standard screws and accessories you need, which makes installation straightforward. The wire path for cords exiting the cover is also designed decently and accommodates cables without too much hassle. Overall, it works, but the build quality could definitely be better. I’d consider other options if you want something more solid.

The weatherproof cover was easy to install and does the job. It feels sturdy. We live in a climate with heavy snow and rain, so we added a silicone sealant around it for extra protection, just in case.

Easy installation, use these covers to protect your outlets from water damage. Makes them safe.

Easy install

Great product and was easy to install if you know what you’re doing already. There was a lack of instructions but if you know what you’re doing you’ll be fine. Other then that it’s great and the weather seal is perfect.

The foam gasket is waterproof. I still caulked the sides and top just in case. I had an outside ethernet plate I wanted to waterproof, but it was a keystone jack in a faceplate. I just trimmed the sides of the faceplate and shoved it into the back of the box. It worked surprisingly well.
