Description
This is a switched double socket with a screwless front plate, so the face reads as one clean panel with no screw heads on show. The finish is a textured carbon fibre weave, dark and close grained, with chrome detail. Each of the two sockets has its own rocker switch and is rated at 13A for everyday household appliances. The texture catches the light differently to a flat painted plate, and much of the appeal is in that.
We reach for this one in rooms with a darker scheme, where a white plate would jump out of the wall: media walls, home offices, studies and workshops. It earns its place behind a desk, where a monitor and a charger can be switched off independently at the end of the day, and it works just as well in a kitchen against a dark splashback or a run of graphite units. It suits anyone matching accessories to a dark scheme rather than accepting the default white. It takes standard UK plugs and runs from a normal household mains supply, indoors only.
The plate is moulded polycarbonate on a metal chassis, light in the hand but firm, and the finish is texture rather than gloss, so it does not show fingerprints the way a mirrored plate does. To clean it, wipe with a barely damp cloth and dry off straight away; cream cleaners and solvents will dull the grain, so keep them well away. It carries a ten year warranty. Alongside dark tiles, smoked glass and brushed metal it looks deliberate rather than industrial, and we would keep one plate style running along a wall so the switches and sockets read as a set.

Frequently Asked
How big is the plate?
It measures 146mm long by 88mm high, with a slim 25mm profile.
Are both sockets switched?
Yes. Each socket has its own rocker switch, so appliances can be turned off separately at the plate.
What is the finish like to look at and touch?
A dark carbon fibre weave with a fine texture rather than a gloss or mirror surface, picked out with chrome detail.
What can I plug into it?
Standard UK plugs drawing up to 13A, on a 220 to 250V household supply.
How should I clean it?
A barely damp cloth, then dry it off. Avoid cream cleaners, bleach sprays and solvents, which dull the textured grain.
Can it go in a bathroom or outside?
No. It is rated IP20 and made for dry indoor rooms only.
