Telescopic Pool Cover Reel 3.7m to 4.9m | Base Plate Mounted | 43mm Slidelock

A heavy-duty telescopic reel for above and in-ground pool covers, built for life by the water. The 43mm anodised aluminium tube extends from 3.7m to 4.9m so it fits any cover up to 4.6m wide, and the mirror polished stainless steel end stands stay smart even with chlorine, salt and weather thrown at them.

This is the base plate mounted version. Each end stand sits on a flat round stainless plate that bolts straight down to your pool surround or deck, giving you a permanent, rock-solid mount that doesn't move when you wind the cover on or off.

Why people choose the Slidelock

• 43mm anodised aluminium tube — rigid, light, won't corrode
• Telescopic 3.7m – 4.9m with internal sleeve that slides and locks for greater rigidity
• Suits covers up to 4.6m wide (with the recommended 300mm overlap each side)
• Mirror polished stainless steel end stands and crank handle axles
• Two steering wheels with crank handles — easy single-person operation
• High quality bearings for smooth winding
• Locking device stops the cover unwinding when you don't want it to
• Slide and lock strap fixing — faster, simpler install than older clip systems
• Made in the UK

Good to know

Allow a maximum 300mm overlap each side of the cover when sizing up — this is what gives the recommended 4.6m maximum cover width on a 4.9m tube. If your pool is wider than this, the same reel is available in a larger 5.0m – 6.7m version for covers up to 6.4m wide — just get in touch and we'll sort it.

The reel can also be retrofitted with a 12V motor pack later on if you decide you want semi-automatic operation down the line.
