Product Overview
M401 — 1 GANG BLANK PLATE
Model: Model: M401 |Category:Range: METAL CLAD RANGE
The M401 is a single-gang blank plate with no switch, socket, or electrical module. Its purpose is purely mechanical and decorative: to cover an unused or reserved wall box and protect the interior from dust, debris, and accidental contact. The plate is molded from durable, flame-retardant PC material and fits standard 86 × 86 mm flush boxes used across the M Range. Key Features 1-Gang Blank Plate: Covers a single unused wall box or accessory position. Non-Functional Cover: No electrical connections, switches, or sockets — ideal for future provisions and blanking-off applications. Premium PC Material: UV-stable, flame-retardant polycarbonate with 750 °C glow-wire resistance, impact strength, and electrical insulation. Universal M Range Fit: Matches the 86 × 86 mm flush wall box and faceplate system used throughout the M Range. Clean, Low-Profile Design: Maintains visual continuity in homes, offices, hotels, and commercial interiors. Easy Installation: Secures with standard mounting screws for fast, straightforward fitting. Durable Finish: Resists discoloration, scratching, and everyday wear in high-traffic areas. Design and Construction The M401 is built from the same high-quality PC material as the rest of the M Range, ensuring a consistent look and feel across an installation. Its smooth, unbroken surface provides a discreet finish that avoids the visual interruption of an open wall box. The plate is lightweight, rigid, and dimensionally stable, with a surface that is easy to clean and maintain. Installation and Compatibility Installation is simple for qualified installers. The M401 fits standard 86 × 86 mm flush wall boxes and uses the same mounting centers as other M Range plates. It can be used in new builds, renovations, and retrofit projects where a spare or unused box needs to be closed. If the wall box contains live wiring, the circuit must be isolated and any exposed conductors must be safely terminated or disconnected by a qualified electrician before the blank plate is fitted. The blank plate itself does not provide electrical insulation for live parts. Applications and Use Cases The ELITE ELEGANCE M401 is ideal for: Covering unused or spare wall boxes in residential and commercial spaces Blanking off removed switches, sockets, or data outlets Protecting future wiring provisions until an accessory is installed Maintaining a consistent M Range appearance during phased renovations Closing wall boxes in offices, hotels, retail units, and service areas Reducing dust and debris entry in unused back boxes Specifications Model: M401 Product Type: 1-Gang Blank Plate Function: Non-functional cover plate Material: UV-stable, flame-retardant PC Mounting: Standard 86 × 86 mm flush wall box Compatibility: M Range faceplate and back box system Finish: White (other finishes may be available) Compliance: RoHS 2.0 compliant materials Why Choose ELITE ELEGANCE M401 Choosing the ELITE ELEGANCE M401 means selecting a blank plate that matches the quality, finish, and installation system of the M Range. It provides a clean, practical way to close unused wall boxes while preserving the aesthetic consistency of a project.
