Product Information

We also include a metal adaptor plate with every wooden frame which allows you to mount your frame and switch to a standard metal flush box for direct replacement of your existing flush mounted light switches. In the 1800s 'pattress' was used to mean the flat wooden plates that gas lighting equipment was mounted on. Straight on the wall looks OK if you are re-creating a very primitive cottagey look and are fixing onto a wooden timber with exposed wire - you just hollow out a bit so as not to trap the wires. But in a more formal setting the moulded wooden mountings are correct. You can paint them wall colour if you like. Faceplate screws are M3.5 raised head. See note under BESA boxes for fixing luminaires to dry-lining boxes. Mounting frames are now available with built-in neons. These light up to make finding the switch in the dark easy.

This wooden pattress is manufactured in our UK workshops by craftsmen using sustainable timber. Iroko is also known as Africian Teak. The mounting frames are manufactured from Solid Oak sourced from managed forests in North American and Europe which ensures this range is of the highest quality and remains a natural looking product. To maximize its versatility this range is available in Light, Medium and Dark oak together with Antique Mahogany or if you require a natural look we can also supply an unfinished natural Oak - this mounting base can also be painted to adapt to your own personal design style and décor.You may be replacing a light fitting that had a wide base than your new fitting or your ceiling has suffered some cosmetic damage whilst removing the old fitting, using a wooden ceiling pattress will, generally, cover a larger area than a ceiling rose meaning that you will not have to re-do your ceiling before installing your new light fitting giving a nice finish to your light fitting. Here's an example of the switches mounted on a wall that had to be completely rebuilt. I kept the original round conduit boxes mounted on the surface, but took the opportunity of the wall rebuild to hide the power cables. To be honest, I'm not entirely convinced I should have done that as I don't really mind steel conduit and it blends in well enough when suitably painted, plus we have plenty of exposed conduit in other areas of the house and it all looks fine to me. I've even installed some new surface steel conduit in a few places to remain in keeping with the original installation. It's the usual dilemma of true authenticity versus the modern fashion for old things, though as we've discussed before, there are very few people willing to live a truly 'period' lifestyle. :wink: Need a way to protect exposed wires and cables?

Freestanding Baths Luxury freestanding baths have become the focal point of many a beautiful, traditional bathrooms. Round boxes with 2" screw spacing. Used with conduit, and also behind some lights. It should be noted that metal conduit boxes use M4 mounting screws, but dry-lining BESA-style pattresses usually use M3.5 'faceplate' screws. This can cause difficulties when fixing surface-mount luminaires intended for flush conduit systems onto dry-lining pattresses, as the M3.5 screws slip through the screwholes in the luminaire. Large ceiling pattress, round, hardwood 6 hook pattress manufactured from Iroko timber.

These accept a number of accessories, which can be mixed at will in the one box. Available accessories include various switches, dimmers, key switches, indicators, etc. The accessories don't have any face plate, a single full size faceplate is fitted last. MK is known for its grid switch range, however they are also available from other manufacturers. Different ranges are not interchangeable.

Gifts & Books Thomas Crapper has become synonymous with toilets and occasionally toilet humour. In this section you will find a selection of books and publications written about him. Breakability can be reduced to some extent by mounting the pattress box on a piece of chipboard that's larger all round than the box. Chipboard and MDF are best as they're soft enough to reduce peak impact forces.

Mounted on a classic oak pattress, these reproduction Bakelite switches provide nostalgic appeal whilst meeting modern safety standards.

I've rewired a whole cottage with old fittings to make it look as if dating from about 1930. Modern cables of course (not rubber and lead-sheathed !) but secured with bendy metal strips as in a shed. Then all painted brown. You sometimes see bits of left-behind wiring like this in old pubs. Surface pattress boxes are not designed for use on extension leads. They have no cordgrip and are brittle, which is not ideal for portable use. Despite this they see fairly widespread use in extension leads, so we will describe how to make these not-recommended leads as safe as possible.
