Product Overview
The Akuvox R29 Surface Rain Cover is a carbon steel weather shield built for an Akuvox R29-series touch screen door station that's been surface (on-wall) or gooseneck pole mounted. It shields the unit from rain and direct sunlight — reducing camera glare as well as protecting it from the weather — while keeping the clean look of a surface-mounted install.
This cover is designed to be used together with a surface mount bracket — see our Akuvox R29 Surface Mount Box. The R29 range includes several variants (R29X, R29S, R29C, R29C-L) with their own matched mounting hardware, so please confirm your exact model with our team before ordering. Supplied directly through Total Security Equipment (intercom and mount bracket sold separately).

Choosing the Right Accessory
Choose this surface rain cover if…
- Your Akuvox R29 is (or will be) surface or gooseneck pole mounted, not recessed.
- The installation is exposed to rain, sun, or dust.
- You want weatherproofing and glare reduction without a wall cavity.
Choose a different accessory if…
- Your R29 is flush (in-wall) mounted, not surface. Ask our team about the flush rain cover instead.
- You're not sure which R29 variant you have. Confirm your exact model with our team — mounting hardware differs across the range.
