The customisable thickness is a game-changer, allowing me to adjust based on wall finishes. The option for removing fixing lugs is great too - on a recent job with slimline dimmer switches there was zero room behind the plate, so I ordered some without lugs and they fit perfectly.
Used this spacer on a recent kitchen rewire after the customer had the walls tiled. The 10mm depth was perfect for bringing the sockets forward without the need to replace the back boxes. Saves time and looks professional. The quality is solid, and the black finish works well with chrome plates.
Solid little unit, got 8mm thick custom colour and they delivered, cheers.
Bought the light switch spacer and it solved a weird little problem we’d had. Fits perfectly and actually looks good, thanks.
