Product Information

Full details

The Trendi Switch Double Blanking Plate in Orange is designed for homeowners and contractors looking to securely and stylishly cover unused electrical back boxes. It provides a clean, high-gloss finish that conceals live wiring to prevent dust, moisture, and accidental contact, making it a perfect safety upgrade for residential or commercial spaces; however, users should ensure their existing back box matches the standard 147 x 85mm dimensions to guarantee a flush fit.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Will this cover any double-gang back box?

Yes, it is designed for standard 2-gang electrical back boxes measuring 147 x 85mm.

Do I need special tools for installation?

No, the faceplate features a tool-free clip-on system once the base is secured.

Can I paint this plate?

It is not recommended, as painting may interfere with the clip-on mechanism and ruin the factory high-gloss finish.

Is this suitable for outdoor use?

This product is designed for indoor use and is not rated for weather resistance.

How do I remove the faceplate?

Gently pry the faceplate from the base using a small, flat-edged tool, taking care not to scratch the surrounding wall.

Troubleshooting

Faceplate feels loose

Ensure the internal clips are aligned correctly and pressed firmly onto the base plate until a click is heard.

Plate does not sit flush against the wall

Check if any excess wires or cable connectors are protruding from the back box; reorganize wiring to clear space.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Trendi Switch plate is straightforward due to its clip-on mechanism. Ensure that the electricity to the circuit is safely isolated before beginning any work on the wiring.

Confirm the back box is a standard 2-gang type.
Ensure all internal wiring is safely terminated within the back box.
Align the base plate with the back box mounting holes and secure with screws.
Snap the orange high-gloss faceplate onto the base until it clicks into position.

For maintenance, use a soft, dry or slightly damp microfibre cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can scratch or dull the high-gloss finish.
