Description

The Knightsbridge SN127P is a single-gang 16mm-depth architrave pattress box in white thermoset resin, designed for mounting wiring accessories in narrow wall spaces where a standard 25mm or 35mm back box will not fit. The 86mm x 33mm faceplate footprint suits architrave trim around doorframes, window reveals, and skirting-adjacent positions where wall depth is limited.

The box fits behind any single-gang Knightsbridge Square Edge (SN) series switch or socket, and is also compatible with general-purpose single-gang accessories from other manufacturers that share standard UK mounting centres. The 16mm internal depth accommodates basic single-gang wiring terminations without requiring the wall to be chased deeper than the surface plasterwork allows. An integral earth terminal provides safe grounding for metal faceplates.

Constructed from thermoset resin rather than thermoplastic, the box resists deformation under heat and maintains dimensional stability when cables are dressed tightly inside. The white finish blends with standard white plaster or painted surfaces. The anti-microbial properties are third-party tested to ISO 22196:2011, making the box suitable for healthcare, hospitality and food-preparation environments where surface hygiene matters.

Frequently Asked

What is an architrave pattress box used for?

An architrave pattress box is a shallow back box designed for mounting switches or sockets in narrow wall spaces where a standard-depth back box will not fit. Common applications include architrave trim around doorframes, window reveals, and positions close to skirting boards where wall depth is limited to surface plasterwork.

Is 16mm deep enough for a switch or socket?

Yes, for basic single-gang installations with standard cable runs. The 16mm internal depth accommodates the wiring terminations for a single-gang switch or socket without requiring the wall to be chased deeper. More complex wiring configurations or multiple cable entries may require a deeper box.

Is this compatible with other brands of wiring accessories?

Yes. The SN127P uses standard UK single-gang mounting centres and fits any single-gang accessory that matches those centres, not just Knightsbridge Square Edge products. Check the accessory faceplate dimensions match the 86mm x 33mm footprint.

What does the anti-microbial property mean?

The thermoset resin is treated to inhibit bacterial growth on the surface of the box. This property is third-party tested to ISO 22196:2011 and makes the box suitable for environments where surface hygiene is important, such as healthcare facilities, hospitality and food-preparation areas.
