DESCRIPTION A useful 1 gang steel surface mounting box to conceal your electrical wiring where it is not practical, or possible, to create a cavity in a wall or beam. This box is in our Polished Lacquer finish to match our range of electrical switch and socket plates. In order to retain a clean look our switch and socket designs have a flush fitting back plate enabling them to sit neatly up against the wall. However, in order to achieve this, the plastic connector box will need to be housed within a cavity in the wall as there is physically no room within the switch plate itself. This means that if you do not already have such a cavity, you need to consult a qualified electrician about fitting a mounting box into your wall. This is generally not a problem if you have plasterboard walls but may be more difficult if they are solid brick or lath and plaster. Product Information Dimensions: 8.6W x 8.6H x 4.2D (cm) Knowledge Base Guides Everything you need to know about switches and sockets Our guide to dimmer switches How to wire switches and sockets Finish Polished Lacquer: This really showcases the stunning natural patina of the metal and is a great choice for a contemporary home or to update a traditional one. To produce the gunmetal grey colour, we polish the metal then seal it with a high gloss clear lacquer to create a finish with great durability. The texture and patina of the iron itself gives the product character which looks wonderful with a grey or natural colour way and works particularly with other metallic finishes such as nickel. It also looks great against natural building materials such as brick, stone, plaster or woodwork and looks equally as good in a modern property as it does a period one. Sign up to our newsletter
