BG 1 Gang 32mm Pattress Surface Box

The BG 1 Gang 32mm pattress surface box is a back box that holds one socket or switch on the surface of a wall. It suits places where the wall cannot be cut into, such as garages, sheds, workshops and solid brick or block walls.

What a 1 Gang Surface Pattress Box Does

A 1 gang pattress box holds a single accessory, such as one switch or one socket outlet. The faceplate screws onto the box, and the wiring sits inside it.

A surface box stays on show, so the wall needs no chiselling. This makes it a tidy choice for adding a socket or switch in a utility room, loft, outbuilding or extension.

Where to Use a 32mm Surface Box

The 32mm size refers to the depth of the box. This gives the cables and the back of the accessory some room inside.

  • Adding a socket in a garage or workshop
  • Fitting a light switch on a brick or block wall
  • Mounting a switch beside surface trunking or conduit
  • Extra sockets in a shed or outbuilding

Surface Box or Flush Box?

A surface box sits on the wall, while a flush box is sunk into it. A flush box looks neater, but it needs a hole cut or chased into the wall. A surface box is quicker to fit and works on walls you do not want to cut into.

Tips Before You Fit It

Check that your faceplate is a single-gang type before you buy. Also make sure the 32mm depth leaves enough space for the cables and the back of the switch or socket.

Switch off the power at the consumer unit before any work. Electrical work in the home should be done by a competent person, so use a qualified electrician if you are not sure.

Disclaimer

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods. Nothing in this notice is intended to exclude, restrict or limit any statutory rights you may have under applicable UK consumer law.
