This is intended for any panel manufacturers out there.
From my point of view, the ideal panel cover would have the following features:
- First, be a size I can handle. No 36" x 76" covers;
- Second, have edges thick enough, rounded enough, that they do not act like knives if they slip, slicing my hands open;
- Be of aluminum, plastic, or other LIGHTWEIGHT material;
- Have a "foot" that supports the weight, and lines up the cover, while mounting;
- Have real handles for lifting it off; and,
- Have mounting screws of a normal thread pattern and a head that uses the same screwdriver as you use inside the panel.
One more thing: the sundry 'clamp / washer' devices some panels use, in place of screws, to hold the covers on have proven to be unreliable. Stop making them!
