We receive a lot of calls asking for information on surface mounting.

Surface mounting is required when it’s not possible to place an electrical box (flush mounting) into the wall.

Our Standen, Osborne and Bakelite ranges can all be surface mounted as standard, but the Albany switches and all sockets require an electrical box to be fitted first. Sometimes it’s also preferable for surface mounting boxes to be fitted with the Standen, Osborne and Bakelite range too.

Olivers Lighting can provide surface mounting boxes, which are hidden by a wooden collar and enclosed by your switch or socket once screwed down on top. These collars are made to order, preferably with your switch and socket order, this allows us to make sure they fit the switch or socket they are to be used with.

For more information, please call Olivers Lighting on 015242 42478.
