{"product_id":"single-blanking-plate-piano-black","title":"Single Blanking Plate - Piano Black","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eA blank plate has a quiet job: it closes off a point that is no longer in use and leaves the wall looking finished. This one is single gang, moulded in polycarbonate with a deep piano black gloss and no screws showing on the face, so the front reads as a plain rectangle rather than a fitting. At 88mm square it takes the usual small plate footprint, and the unbroken surface keeps the eye moving past it. We like it in rooms where black switchgear is already in place and a bare opening would otherwise catch the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe reach for it when a room has been reorganised and a position is left doing nothing: a spare point beside a run of sockets, an old television point in a bedroom that is now a study, a switch position that no longer controls anything. It is for indoor rooms, and it is as much at home on a hallway or landing wall as in a sitting room or kitchen. It suits anyone working towards a consistent look across a room, where an odd gap or a mismatched cover would break the line of a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePolycarbonate gives the piano black its even, glassy depth, and the plate is light in the hand and quiet on the wall. A gloss face shows fingerprints more readily than a matt one, so keep a dry microfibre cloth to hand and use a barely damp one for marks, with cream cleaners, polishes and solvents kept well away. It carries a ten year warranty. Set alongside black switches and sockets, it lets a wall read as a single finish rather than a patchwork of odds and ends.\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\u003ePiano Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCore\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\u003e88mm\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 size is the plate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a standard single plate size, 88mm high by 88mm wide, so it sits in line with other single gang plates on the same wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is it made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoulded polycarbonate with a piano black gloss finish.
