Blanking Plate Modules

Empty positions on a modular grid plate look unfinished and let dust settle into the gaps. We stock Knightsbridge blanking modules to fill those spaces neatly, with quarter, half and full grid blanks across a wide choice of finishes. Our range covers white, grey and black inserts alongside metal options, so you can match unused slots to the plates already on your wall.

Sorting grid modules by size and finish

A modular grid system lets you build up a plate from individual functions, so a single faceplate can carry switches, sockets and data outlets side by side. When a layout does not fill every position, blanking modules close off the empty slots. We stock three sizes from Knightsbridge to suit different gaps. Quarter blanking modules measure 12.5 x 50mm and slot into the smallest spaces left over on a grid. Half blanking modules at 25 x 50mm fill the mid-sized gaps, while full blank grid modules cover a complete single position. Choosing the right size keeps the front of the plate level and tidy.

Matching the colour to your existing plates

Blanks only look right when they sit alongside the inserts they share a plate with. Our quarter and half modules come in white, grey and black, which are the insert colours used across most standard grid setups. The full blank grid modules give you a broader spread of finishes, including white, matt white, matt black, polished chrome, brushed chrome, brushed brass, antique brass, smoked bronze, anthracite and black nickel. That range means you can carry a metal finish such as brushed brass or black nickel right across the plate, rather than leaving a plain white square in the middle of a coloured layout. Materials vary by module too, with acrylic, resin, ABS and metal options depending on the finish you pick.

Where blanking modules help

Blanks are useful whenever a grid is built with room to grow, or when an outlet has been removed and the slot is no longer needed. They keep dust and fingers away from the opening behind the plate and give a flat, finished face. Because grid modules are designed to clip into a standard grid frame, swapping or adding a blank is straightforward. Where the work involves any fixed wiring or removing live parts, we would always recommend a qualified electrician handles it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a blanking plate module?

A modular grid plate is built from individual functions that clip into a frame behind a single faceplate. Blanking modules are the inserts you use to close off any positions you are not filling with a switch, socket or data outlet. We stock quarter, half and full blank grid modules from Knightsbridge so you can match the blank to the exact gap left on your grid.

Which size of blanking module do I need?

It depends on the gap. Quarter blanking modules measure 12.5 x 50mm for the smallest spaces, half blanking modules at 25 x 50mm fill mid-sized gaps, and a full blank grid module covers one complete single position. Look at the size of the empty slot on your existing grid and pick the module that fills it without overlapping the neighbouring functions.

Can I match a blank to my existing plate finish?

Our quarter and half modules come in white, grey and black to match the common insert colours. The full blank grid modules offer a wider choice, including matt white, matt black, polished chrome, brushed chrome, brushed brass, antique brass, smoked bronze, anthracite and black nickel. Pick the blank in the same finish as the inserts already sharing the plate so the front stays consistent.

Do I need an electrician to fit a blanking module?

Grid modules, including blanks, are designed to clip into a standard grid frame behind the faceplate. Reaching that frame usually means removing the plate from a wired back box, so we would always recommend a qualified electrician carries out any work at the plate that involves fixed wiring or live parts and leaves the installation safe.
