Socket box to fit in a floor of overall depth 55mm

Designed for shallow screed

World Duty Free Group operates a broad portfolio of store fascias predominantly in airports, in countries all over the world. They operate with partnership concession. As concessions change, so must the displays, and they must enable their concessions to showcase their products to best effect.

Floor depth, however, is a significant challenge with only 55-65mm overall floor make up including the final floor material.

Cableduct designed a stainless steel socket box to be placed in the screed, using only 30mm for the socket area, only 55mm overall with a 12mm recess in the lid to accept the floor tile.

Unlike a standard outlet box, the lid has to be removed when the box is in use. All boxes are located underneath displays, and the lid replaced if the display is moved, secured using the solid stainless steel corner blocks.
