Description

The Knightsbridge 13A DP key lockable socket is a 2-gang switched socket with a key-operated lock mechanism built into each outlet position, preventing unauthorised access to mains power. The matt black screwless faceplate sits flush on a separate metal sub-frame, giving a clean finish without visible fixings. The double-pole switching isolates both live and neutral lines when locked off, providing additional safety over single-pole designs.

Designed for communal and commercial spaces where electricity access needs controlling, the socket suits student accommodation, hotel rooms, office hot-desking areas, communal kitchens, and shared facilities in apartment blocks. Each outlet can be locked independently using the supplied keys, allowing one socket to remain active while the other is disabled. The 13A rating handles standard UK appliance loads up to 3,120W per outlet.

The premium-grade steel construction and IP20 rating make the socket suitable for indoor installation in high-traffic areas. The recessed depth of 38.2mm requires a minimum 47mm back box for safe fitting, which is deeper than standard 25mm boxes. The matt black finish provides a low-sheen neutral tone that pairs with both contemporary and industrial interiors, and the screwless cover plate can be removed for redecorating without re-wiring.

Knightsbridge backs this socket with a 25-year warranty, reflecting the build quality and expected lifespan in commercial and residential use. The socket includes two keys per lock position, allowing a master key to be retained by facilities management while providing access keys to authorised users.

Frequently Asked

What back box depth is required?

A minimum 47mm back box depth is needed for safe installation. This is deeper than standard 25mm boxes used for non-lockable sockets, due to the key-lock mechanism housed behind the faceplate.

Can each socket be locked independently?

Yes. Each of the two outlets has its own key-lock mechanism, allowing one socket to remain active while the other is disabled. This is useful in shared spaces where partial access is needed.

How many keys are supplied?

The socket includes two keys per lock position. In a 2-gang configuration this means four keys total, allowing facilities management to retain master keys while providing access keys to authorised users.

Is the screwless plate removable for redecorating?

Yes. The matt black cover plate clips onto a separate metal sub-frame fixed to the back box. The cover can be removed for painting around the socket and re-clipped without disturbing the wiring.
