    Help: Skimmer Basket Support Ring Comes off with Deck Lid

    HI, I need to re-secure my skimmer ring to my pool deck as it comes out with each time I remove the lid for the basket. Even more troublesome is that my dogs trip over it and risk breaking a leg :( Is there a recommended product and means of securing the ring back to the pool deck? Big thanks!

    Sadly, Leslie’s was the first place I looked in the Spring and they said they stopped carrying it. I’ll try Pinch a Penny.
