Looking for cable tidy wall plates in the UK

[md99]

That's probably not the actual name but these are the things I'm after...

Does anyone know of a UK based online company that has them? A retail outlet is no good as I'm located in ireland.

Thanks for your time

They look like a US design to me, judging from the shape of the wall-box in which they're designed to work.

If I'm right, and since they're not actually carrying any electricity per se, it may be worth looking for an online US electrical store willing to ship them, and matching back-boxes, to you.

 

[md99]

Yeah, can pretty much only find them in the US. Shame really as they're very tidy....

Oh well...

There's always these!

 

[md99]

I guess I could go for them, ugly as hell but its not as if they'll be seen anyway.

Thanks very much.

OK, lunchtime spent searching, and...

They're made by Datacomm, and they're called a

Datacomm 1-Gang Recessed Low Voltage Cable Plate - White - 45-0001-WH

Also available in black.

Armed with that you should be able to buy them from US electrical retailers shipping worldwide, or you may be able to google up a UK supplier. Bear in mind, though, that while I just found them online for about $3, the shipping would add $65!!!

But it's worth a look - I'm sure other companies ship for less, including some on Amazon.com.

Remember, though, that you'll also need to buy the baxk-box or mount to attach it to the wall: this should only add a few dollars.

Oh, and there's also a double-width one...
