Pop-up versus in-surface power for worktops and desks

When you want power on a worktop or desk without a permanent socket on show, two formats cover most jobs. Pop-up sockets sit flush in the surface and rise up at a press when you need them, then drop back out of sight. In-surface and recessed sockets stay set into the worktop or desk, giving you outlets that are always ready while keeping the front face low and tidy. We stock Knightsbridge pop-up and recessed sockets in both styles, so you can match the format to how the surface is used day to day.

13A sockets with USB charging built in

Most units in our range run on standard 13A outlets, with one, two or three gangs depending on how many appliances you need to run at once. Many models add USB charging alongside the mains sockets, so phones and tablets charge straight from the surface without a separate plug. We stock options with dual USB-A, with combined USB-A and USB-C fastcharge, and a pop-up unit that also includes a 10W wireless charger. A 3 gang recessed model is rated IP54 for added protection against dust and splashes.

Finishes to suit kitchens, studies and offices

Pop-up and recessed sockets show only a small ring or lid at the surface, so the finish needs to sit well against worktops and desktops. We stock matt black, matt silver, polished chrome, black nickel and brushed chrome, with several units built from metal or aluminium and a polycarbonate option. Black inserts feature across much of the range, helping the visible parts blend in when the socket is closed.

Fitting recessed and pop-up sockets

These units drop into a cut-out in the worktop, desk or floor box, so the surface needs a clean aperture of the right size before you start. The mains side connects to a fixed supply, so we always recommend a qualified electrician carries out any work involving fixed wiring. Plan the position around how the surface is used, leaving clear space for the unit to rise and for plugs to sit without fouling cupboards or drawers below.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a pop-up socket and a recessed socket?

A pop-up socket sits flush with the surface and rises up at a press when you need power, then pushes back down out of sight when you are finished. A recessed or in-surface socket stays set into the worktop or desk, with the outlets always accessible but the front kept low. Pop-up units keep the surface completely clear when closed, while recessed units suit places where you want power ready at all times.

Can these sockets charge phones and tablets directly?

Many units in our range include USB charging alongside the 13A mains outlets. We stock models with dual USB-A, with combined USB-A and USB-C fastcharge, and a pop-up unit with a 10W wireless charger. This lets you charge phones and tablets straight from the worktop or desk without taking up a mains socket, which is useful in kitchens, studies and office setups.

Do I need an electrician to fit a pop-up or recessed socket?

The mains side of these sockets connects to a fixed supply, so we recommend a qualified electrician carries out any work involving fixed wiring. You will also need a clean cut-out of the correct size in the worktop, desk or floor box. Planning the position and aperture before fitting helps the unit rise freely and keeps plugs clear of cupboards or drawers below.

Which finishes are available?

We stock pop-up and recessed sockets in matt black, matt silver, polished chrome, black nickel and brushed chrome. Several units are built from metal or aluminium, with a polycarbonate option. Because only a small ring or lid shows at the surface, the finish mainly affects how the unit reads against the worktop or desktop when it is closed. Black inserts feature across much of the range to help the visible parts blend in.
