This single back box is deep enough to hold all the electrics for our Taylor picture light inside. You can fit it into masonry or stud walls. It has tabs and a lip that grip the plasterboard securely when installed into a cavity. It’s also made from fully recycled and recyclable post-consumer plastic. We sell 9mm and 3mm trims to add to your back box so you can render or skim it into the wall for a perfect finish. The box comes with a cover that allows you to do this without getting plaster inside.
This product is no returnable.

A metal back box is a metal enclosure used to house electrical sockets, switches, and other electrical fittings. They are installed within walls and provide a secure and stable mounting for the electrical components.
Common sizes for metal back boxes in the UK include:
Yes, metal back boxes must be earthed to ensure electrical safety. They typically have an earth terminal to connect the earth wire from the electrical circuit.
Metal Back Boxes: More robust, provide better protection against fire, and are often required by building regulations for certain installations.
Plastic Back Boxes: Easier to install in drywall or plasterboard, non-conductive, and do not require earthing.
Knockouts are pre-scored sections on the back or sides of a metal back box that can be easily removed to allow for cable entry. They are designed to be punched out using a hammer and screwdriver or pliers.
