Made for the outdoor tap you forget about, until January.

Skade is an outdoor garden faucet built as an anti-freeze bibcock: the kind of tap you install once and stop thinking about. Choose a dual-outlet version to run a garden hose and a washing-machine feed from the same fixture, or the single-outlet Silver zinc-alloy version for a simple garden-only setup.

It is designed for the parts of the house that meet the weather: the exterior wall, the utility corner behind the washer, the garden bed, the workshop and the boat dock. Skade is named for the Norse goddess of winter, mountains and hunting.
