NDS864G 5-Inch Pro Series Channel Drain Kit, 5-1/2-Inch X 39-3/8-Inch Deep Profile Channel, Includes Two Gray Plastic Grates, End Caps/Outlet, for Driveways, Patios & Pool Decks, Gray

Great draining big flow rate have these hooked up to my gutters... working great so far... used gorilla glue hot glue to connect to PVC.. very solid way to connect.. not an issue if you buy two or more but it only comes with one end connecter to attach to the PVC drain pipe.. they are a little pricey but for the width and flow rate and brand name it is worth it :) i like the color as well matches nice with big box store pea gravel or river rock

Not the strongest but works great

This is my second purchase of these. First one was about 5 years ago and it is doing well. Have some runoff from a hill and using these so the yard does no bog down.The kit includes everything you need to run one pipe out the side (either 3" or 4") and one out the bottom. It also has markings in case to need to cut it to fit. Didn't need that but it seems to be a smart option.Very well built, and an easy recommend.

Just as advertised. Just be aware that the 3" and 4" exit pipe sizes they mention are NDS solid pipe sizes and not schedule 40 or 4" corrugated drain pipe. I had to do some searching at my local big-box home improvement store but did find the NDS pipe adapter I needed. My need was one drain from my patio and this was a great product for it. For my application, well-packed dirt on three sides, the patio stones on one side and landscape spikes in the "ears" that came on the product made it solid. No concrete needed. I did put 100% silicone in the joints of the product (as directed) and between it and the patio stones. Great replacement for what I had rigged that lasted for the past 4 years before its plastic covering deteriorated.

The product is build well and feels very sturdy but the channels do not lock together very firmly and the end caps are from from a secure fit. I installed these in stone around my sun-porch for drainage and they will work okay but I would have gone with a different product had i realized how poorly they inter connect and terminate.

Not necessarily for a DIY'r unless you have some construction skills. I used three units end to end, capped opposite ends using JB Weld because I never have trusted the bond strength of silicone. Needed to drain out the bottom using a PVC elbow so I had to cut out the entire inside diameter, required a Roto Zip with extended cutter to reach the depth required so plan on some extra effort with the bottom drain port if that is what you need.Supporting the assembly on the bottom with a few paver bricks is a good idea, as for the rebar mounting clips I found it best to bind the rebar to the plastic clips using rebar tie wire. If you don't bind the clips to the rebar (after establishing correct slope) the angle you have placed the units on may shift by concrete surrounding the housing and float up without you knowing it!.The elbow I used on the bottom discharge port didn't fit well so be prepared to check the fit of your PVC drain components, you may need some creative fastening to make sure the PVC doesn't come off during concrete placement.The end to end connection mechanism built into the trench units could be better but if you are careful handling the connected joints they will work, if you are expecting a full locking effect it just isn't there.

A large truck broke my old drain cover as it left my property , this new drain with new cover was a direct fit , wish it was a bit thicker. To. Hold up to weight of large trucks , but. For now it works. Well for me

Great drain
