{"product_id":"double-blanking-plate-bright-teal","title":"Double Blanking Plate - Bright Teal","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a plain cover plate in bright teal, made to close off a double position on the wall and leave a flat, tidy face where there is nothing to operate. The screwless style keeps the front unbroken: no screw heads, no slots, just an even panel with a slim edge that sits close against the wall. Its footprint matches a standard double plate, so it sits in line with the switches and sockets already in the room rather than looking like an odd addition to them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe reach for one of these when a socket or a switch has been taken out of service and the wall is left with a gap that catches the eye: kitchens after a rearrangement, home offices where a point is no longer wanted, hallways, landings and utility rooms. It suits anyone who would rather not accept a white plate on a coloured wall, and it earns its keep in a scheme where strong colour has already been used on the woodwork or the walls. Dry rooms indoors are its place, and nothing more demanding than that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate is moulded in polycarbonate, so it is light in the hand and hard-wearing, with the teal finish carried right across the visible face. Keep it looking well with an occasional wipe using a soft cloth, barely damp, and a drop of washing-up liquid if there are fingermarks near a doorway; abrasive creams, kitchen sprays and solvents are best kept well away from a coloured plastic front, as they can dull it. It carries a ten year warranty. As styling it does quiet work: a blank in a colour you have chosen reads as part of the room, where a mismatched white one only advertises itself. We think of it as a finishing piece rather than a compromise, and it is worth buying at the same time as the plates around it so the tone matches across the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBright Teal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.07KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10yrs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUKCA\/CE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdditional Certification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBS EN 60669\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePieces Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRequires Installation By Qualified Electrician. 25mm Box Depth Is Recommended.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndoor Use Only.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does a blanking plate actually do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt covers a wall position that is no longer in use, giving a flat closed face where a switch or socket once sat.
