GIRA’s basic range of simple but stylish frames is available in three finishes and a huge choice of possible functions. We think Standard 55 is a great option for the budget-conscious designer, with all the quality assurance and functionality you come to expect from a brand like GIRA. It features an easy-to-clean glossy surface and both switched and unswitched units.

PLEASE NOTE: The double sockets of this range require European back boxes. You may find this product useful for installation: Connectable UK back box.

Gira sockets are available with and without small isolation switches. Unswitched sockets are less common in the UK, but they are perfectly safe and compliant with building regulations.

Gira has a huge range of wiring products, functions and devices that can be combined with these frames. Contact us for information on other options if you can’t find what you’re looking for.

Installation

Gira British Standard sockets are straightforward to install. The insert is connected and screwed into the back box, the frame is placed over the insert and the cover is pushed into four slots in the insert, securing the frame. Finally the small isolating switch covers (if you are installing a switched socket) are pushed onto the switches in the insert.

Please refer to our Installation section for more installation advice, manuals and helpful videos.

Dimensions

Does this cover a standard UK back box?
This product covers a standard metal knockout box, but it doesn't cover the edges of plastic "dry-lining" boxes. If you can't fit a metal flush box, we recommend using "flat plate" drywall boxes or European round boxes.
