Schneider Electric Lisse Screwless Deco - Double Socket Surround, with Phone Holder Shelf, GGBLSHF2GS, White

Arrived on time, just the job.

This socket spacer is simple but effective. I needed it to give a bit of extra clearance behind a socket, and it fit perfectly with the Schneider Lisse range. The white moulded finish matches the sockets well, so it doesn’t stick out or look odd once fitted. It’s lightweight but solid enough to do the job, and the screw holes lined up properly with no faff. Ideal for installations where the wall isn’t completely flat or you’ve got cables that need a bit of room behind. Not the most exciting item, but very handy if you’re doing a bit of DIY.

Stylish plate to save time installing deeper box in wall , works well value for money

Used these before to accommodate extra wiring and/or smart sockets. Saves having to dig out and deepen a shallow steel back box.

Be aware that the screw holes are recessed into the spacer from both sides which will cause issues with many smart light switches (a common need for a spacer for shallow back boxes). You can see this in the photos but I assumed one side would be flush. Many smart light switches have a backplate which connects to the wiring and then a front which clips on top. The backplate is a smaller profile than the front, so when you screw in the backplate with the spacer, the entire thing will nestle inside the recessed area where the holes are, and mean that the front can't clip on. I had to add several washers between the spacer and the backplate, which isn't ideal. It seems like a better design would be to have one side recessed and one side flush so that the user could decide which way round to install the spacer.

Didn't use in the end. Haven't sent back as its only 3 quid so its gone in the toolbox.

The plane went on fairly easily but you'll need longer screws to secure it, the ones in the pack are too short. The shelf part holds a phone comfortably but when I was charging my ear pods it was too narrow to hold them. Ideal if you have a socket near your cooker and your following a recipe.

No problems timer works perfect and was easy to install but would recommend that when using single socket spacer that any buyer should either buy or ensure that they have 50mm long electrical fixing screws.
