Description
The Knightsbridge screwless 1-gang grid faceplate is an 88mm square matt black steel cover plate designed to clip onto a separate 1-gang grid frame (GDS001F, sold separately). The faceplate provides a screwless finish for modular grid switch and socket installations, hiding the frame fixings behind the cover plate for a cleaner wall appearance.
Designed for use with Knightsbridge's modular grid system, the faceplate coordinates with the screwless switches and sockets range, allowing grid modules (data, voice, audio, dimmer, switch modules) to be mounted behind a matching finish. The 3.5mm projection from the wall keeps the plate flush with typical plasterboard or plastered surfaces. The matt black finish provides a low-sheen surface that resists fingerprints and pairs with contemporary, industrial and minimalist interiors.
The faceplate is constructed from premium-grade steel rather than plastic, giving a more substantial feel and better long-term durability in high-traffic areas. The matt black coating is applied to the steel substrate and holds its finish under regular handling. The IP20 rating suits standard indoor dry locations; this faceplate is not rated for bathroom zones or outdoor use.

Frequently Asked
What grid frame does this faceplate require?
The faceplate clips onto a Knightsbridge GDS001F 1-gang grid frame, which is sold separately. The frame is fixed to a 25mm back box and holds the grid modules, while the faceplate clips over the frame to hide the fixings.
Can this be used with standard UK switches and sockets?
No. This faceplate is designed exclusively for Knightsbridge's modular grid system. It will not fit standard UK switches or sockets. For screwless cover plates for standard switches and sockets, see the Knightsbridge screwless range (different product line).
What other finishes are available?
Knightsbridge produces this 1-gang grid faceplate in a range of finishes including polished chrome, brushed chrome, polished brass, antique brass and white. Use the search function or filters to find other variants in stock at Niori.
Is the faceplate removable for redecorating?
Yes. The cover plate clips onto the grid frame and can be removed to paint or redecorate around the switch, then re-clipped without disturbing the wiring or grid modules.
