Pack of 10 British General - Nexus - Spare Screw Caps for Mains Wall Outlet Sockets

Slightly expensive for what they are, but hey I knew the price before I bought them. These seem to be 8mm at the cap end and fit 7mm holes. The holes in my light switches are countersunk so these caps press down flat/flush and do not protrude. They look good and are a firm fit. I did have to remove two of the caps so an electrician could gain access. I found I could remove them with some gorilla tape I have, sellotape wasn't strong/sticky enough for me but I suspect with a bit of perseverance and a lot of choice words it probably would have worked in the end!

I fitted a new switch which came with these. It looked so good when finished that I decided to add them to all my new sockets and switches in the kitchen. A bit pricey though for the number you get. Additional comments. 22 Feb 24. Purchased more of these for the rest of the house. Sadly they do not fit!! SO BEWARE It seems that they fit my newer switches and sockets but not those that have been in the house 25 years!! Not sure why as those look the same style as my new ones. Not sending them back as it was my fault to assume that the screw spaces were all a standard size. Gutted!

Unfortunately they are too big for MK Lightswitches but fits perfectly to old power sockets :-)

They don’t fit ,absolute rubbish.

Fits or pops out depending on socket (lights or power outlets).I find that depending on the existing screws that hold the socket in place, screwed in hard ones distort the hole (due to flexing) so they pop out. Others you need to tighten them a bit for these covers to fit.Had some where one side hold and the other pops out.Not a perfect solution .

These are a great fit for British general switches.Remember all companies have different hole sizes though.Example: they won't fit MK or some others.At this price its trial and error I guess.Well made and exact colour match.

turns out i have 2 different types of sockets in my flat and these ones only fitted the newer looking type. it would help if these had measurements on it as the newer ones seem to take these 'larger' type. Now i just have to work out how to buy smaller ones, i reckon the difference is probably only 1.5mm

Perfect for covering screw heads
