Our Backflow Cage Custom Design and Installation Process
1.
Initial Consultation & Site Assessment
The property owner schedules a site evaluation with Cover Your Brass, and our AWWA-certified technicians confirm the backflow device dimensions, clearance requirements, and potential theft risks. This initial assessment allows our team to inspect the surrounding plumbing system and mounting surfaces to ensure the custom enclosure design complies with local codes while maintaining easy access for annual testing and maintenance.
4.
Scheduling and Preparation for Installation
Our team coordinates the installation timeline to ensure minimal disruption to your property’s water service or daily operations. By preparing specialized anchoring hardware and professional installation tools in advance, our backflow technicians arrive at the residential, commercial, or municipal site with a plan tailored to the specific mounting surface, ensuring a smooth and efficient setup.
7.
Final Walkthrough with Care & Warranty Info
The process concludes with a final walkthrough in which our technician demonstrates how to access the enclosure for routine maintenance and reviews the locking system's security features. We provide the property owner with essential care guidance, service documentation, and warranty details, ensuring you have the necessary records to confirm compliance and protect your investment for years to come.
2.
Design Customization
Our certified backflow technicians use site-specific measurements to develop a tailored design that fits the backflow assembly perfectly without restricting internal movement or valve operation. By aligning the cage layout with your specific plumbing configuration, our team creates a design featuring reinforced frames and secure locking mechanisms, ensuring the resulting shield is ready for seamless fabrication and professional installation.
5.
On-Site Assembly and Secure Mounting
During installation, our backflow technicians precisely position the protective enclosure and anchor the cage with heavy-duty fasteners suitable for concrete pads, equipment platforms, or wall structures. This secure mounting process prevents unauthorized access and movement, resulting in a stable, code-compliant installation that protects the backflow device while keeping testing ports and shutoff valves accessible for future inspections.
3.
Fabrication of Standard or Custom Cage
Once the design is finalized, Cover Your Brass fabricates the standard or custom cage using industrial-grade materials to provide the structural strength required to prevent tampering or physical impact. Our fabrication process focuses on reinforced frames and secure mounting points tailored to the device layout, producing a durable, code-compliant enclosure that meets the high security standards of Southern California properties.
6.
Final Testing for Stability and Security
After mounting is complete, our AWWA-certified technicians conduct a final stability test to confirm the cage is properly aligned and the locking system is fully functional. We verify that all anchoring points are tamper-resistant and that the enclosure fittings do not interfere with the backflow assembly, ensuring the installation meets local municipal standards and is ready for long-term field use.

By securing the assembly, these cages prevent service disruptions, costly repairs, and potential water contamination while keeping your system fully protected and code-compliant.
