Nobody plans for an electrical outlet when designing and building a deck. After all, there’s usually one on the wall right next to the door. But what if you want to plug something in near the outer edge of the deck? You could run an extension cord and hope nobody trips over it, or you could check out this new product.
The Red Dot Deck Grommet Pro makes it simple to add waterproof electrical outlets anywhere you’d like on a new or an existing deck. When not in use, it folds flush with the deck boards. Check it out at tnb.com, look for it at the home center or just search for “deck grommet pro” online. Expect to pay about $60.
