Electrical outlets riser

This simple product raises a light switch cover that fits around electrical outlets plates. The general idea is to keep the fabric flash to the wall. So, when a cover plate goes back over the outlet, then the fabric stays flat.

Our wall plates riser are invisible as they are behind the fabric. The advantage is that your wall upholstery will look really good including the light switch outlets.
Stop spending time messing around with strips of wood. A product like this one will make your wall upholstery going so much faster.

Our outlet plate compensate for the depth of the track and padding. Therefore, the fabric remains evenly stretch on the surface without sinking into the wall. Check out this product in the shop page. Also, a very short video is available called fabric around outlets.

Plates are sold by the piece. They are single and double plate. For larger light switch outlet, please read instructions in the product’s page.

Handy wall sconce plates

At the same time, we have a plate specially made for wall lights. A sconce fits onto the plate without a problem. In fact, it is wide enough to accommodate most lights. One installed a sconce will be at the level of the fabric wall.
The good news is if there are ceiling lights, they will work too.

How to fix one?
Just place it on the edge of the electrical box, then use a brad nail gun. Of course, fix a plate riser before the padding. It takes 10 nails to fix firmly on walls or on ceilings. And, to install one plate, it only takes a few seconds. So, it’s worth your time, go and check them out.
Finish the fabric installation. Snip the fabric and bring electrical wires out. Attach the fabric to the inner edge of the plate. Connect to the light fixture. Then, screw the light backplate to the compensation plate. But let the electricain do the wiring.
