Side plates for AC cover
The side plates for AC cover complete the covering of your outdoor unit when the depth rails are extended. By increasing the depth of the AC cover, these rails create a visible gap at the rear, on the sides of the product. The side plates then cover this area to provide a cleaner and more consistent finish.
Made of aluminium and sold in pairs, they match the main DECOClim colours and are available in several sizes, including for models with height extension. They are therefore designed for configurations where depth adjustment requires a more complete side finish.

A side covering designed for depth rails
The side plates for AC cover are designed to be used with depth rails. These rails allow the cover to be adjusted when the outdoor unit is deeper or when more space needs to be kept at the rear of the unit. However, once extended, they create an open area on the sides, between the AC cover and the wall.
The side plates cover this space to visually extend the AC cover. They help maintain a cleaner installation without leaving the added depth visible. If the depth rails are not extended, the side plates are not suitable, as they are specifically designed to cover this gap.
Aluminium side plates designed for DECOClim AC covers
DECOClim aluminium side plates are sold in pairs, to cover both sides of the AC cover in a balanced way. They integrate into the continuity of the main cover and help maintain a consistent finish when the product depth has been adjusted.
Available in the main colours of the range, white, anthracite, cream white or light ivory, they can easily be matched to the installed model. They are also available in several sizes, with versions designed for covers equipped with a height extension. For a harmonious result, it is recommended to choose the same size and colour as the main AC cover.
A practical alternative to custom-made solutions
The benefit of depth rails and side plates is also that they allow you to keep a standard AC cover, even when the outdoor unit requires more depth. In some cases, the width and height of the cover are suitable, but the depth needs to be adjusted. Rather than moving up to a larger size just to gain a few centimetres, the rails allow you to increase the depth of the chosen model.
The side plates then complete the whole installation by concealing the space created at the rear. This solution allows you to benefit from a standard product, at a standard price, without having to design a specific cover. It also avoids the longer lead times associated with custom-made products, while maintaining a clean and consistent finish. It is a simple answer when the need mainly concerns depth, and not all the dimensions of the cover.
How to choose your side plates for AC cover?
The choice of side plates depends first on your configuration. Before ordering, you need to check that the depth rails of your AC cover are properly extended. Without this adjustment, the side plates cannot be installed correctly.
You then need to select the format matching your DECOClim AC cover. If your model has a height extension, it is important to choose the side plates designed for this configuration.
