Single Surface Mounting Box in Beeswax
Item No.
3209BW
Measurements
8.6W x 8.6H x 4.2D (cm)
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 beeswax 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.

Finish
Beeswax: A traditional technique used since Tudor times. The metal is heated until it darkens and then dipped in natural beeswax which gives is a lovely soft black wrought iron effect which looks fabulous in any traditional or contemporary interior. As beeswax is a natural finish that reacts with the underlying metal during the forging process, it often has a subtle, slightly mottled patina with undertones of deep grey or ochre. It is not waterproof, so will need to be rewaxed occasionally.
