HERE'S HOW TO DESIGN
YOUR OWN COVERS
There are three basic types of General Purpose Covers
(GPC), Raised, Flat, and Flanged. We use A, B, and C instead of
width, depth, and length, so we won't get mixed up over the phone.
The way a cover attaches to your equipment can be by Velcro or hinge.
Please be sure to give us the finished inside dimensions of the
cover and not the size of the panel opening you are covering. Custom
covers made to your dimensions cannot be returned if they do not
fit.

RAISED GPC COVERS
If you know your ABC's you can design our General
Purpose Cover (GPC). Just specify the inside cover dimensions
A, B, and C as shown on the left. Attachment is made by 3/8"
wide Velcro strips. Please make sure there is room on your machine
for the Velcro. Half of the Velcro stays on the edge of the
cover and half on the machine. The cover is easily removed for
access to the controls. Hinged attachment is also available
in this style. |

FLAT GPC COVERS
Flat covers with Velcro are easy. Just give us
the length and width of the cover and tell us where to put the
Velcro. Please don't forget to add 3/8" on each side of the
cover for the Velcro.
For Flat Hinged covers, you need to have an extra inch of unobstructed
space for the hinge on your equipment. Make sure that all the
switches are recessed so the cover will not depress them and
specify your cover slightly larger than the panel opening Please
indicate where the hinge goes. |

FLANGED GPC COVERS
Sometimes it's nice to have flanges or tabs on
a cover for wall attachment. Follow the Raised GPC rules above
and allow 3/4" on each side for the flanges. We can drill holes
in the flanges or put Velcro on them. If desired we can close
one of the ends or both. Hinged attachment is also available,
just tell us where to put the hinge. |
