Description

The Knightsbridge CS7AB is a 13A 1-gang DP switched socket finished in antique brass with a black insert and square edge profile. The faceplate is constructed from premium-grade steel with a brushed antique brass finish that darkens slightly in the grain lines, giving it a warmer, aged appearance compared to polished or satin brass. The black insert behind the socket aperture provides visual definition and hides the back of the mounting plate.

Designed for residential and commercial installation, the socket fits a standard 25mm minimum back box depth and uses screw-fixed mounting rather than a screwless cover system. The exposed screw caps match the antique brass finish. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral when switched off, providing additional safety margin over single-pole switching for high-draw appliances or in environments where full isolation is preferred.

The square edge profile gives the socket a defined geometric outline against the wall, without the soft radius of rounded-edge alternatives. The 89mm square footprint and 10.5mm projection from the wall make it suitable for standard UK single-gang installations. The antique brass finish pairs well with period properties, heritage restoration projects, and warm-toned contemporary interiors where a brass accent is wanted without the high shine of polished finishes. The socket carries IP20 rating for indoor dry-location use and is backed by Knightsbridge's 25-year warranty.

Frequently Asked

What back box depth is required?

A 25mm minimum back box depth is needed for safe installation. The faceplate adds 10.5mm of projection from the wall once fitted.

Is this a screwless socket?

No. The CS7AB uses screw-fixed mounting with visible screw caps that match the antique brass finish. For a screwless version in antique brass, see the Knightsbridge screwless range.

What's the difference between antique brass and polished brass?

Antique brass has a brushed, darkened finish with tonal variation that gives it an aged, warmer appearance. Polished brass is bright and reflective with a mirror-like surface. Antique brass works better in period properties or where a softer metallic accent is wanted.

What other finishes are available in this range?

Knightsbridge produces this square edge socket style in polished chrome, brushed chrome, polished brass, satin brass, matt black and white. Use the search function or filters to find other variants in stock at Niori.
