Switch and Socket Frames

A switch and socket frame is the part that completes the visible face of a flush-mounted mechanism on the wall, surrounding the rocker or socket cover and covering the gap between the box and the wall. It is used as a single for one switch or socket and as a multiple for mechanisms arranged side by side or one above the other, and it determines the color and material of the switch and socket look in the space. The category lists single, double, triple and multi-gang, horizontal and vertical frames for the Schneider Electric Yeni Unica, Merten System-M, Merten System-D and Asfora and Viko Karre and Meridian series, in colors such as white, cream, anthracite, aluminum and bronze. Choose the frame from the same series as your mechanism, the number of gangs by the number of mechanisms to be fitted side by side, the mounting orientation by horizontal or vertical arrangement, and the color and material by the decor of the space. The Yeni Unica series also includes frames with an IP55 protection rating. A frame is not a working switch or socket on its own; the mechanism and rocker cover are bought separately, and frames from different series mostly do not replace one another.
