Wall plate / switch cover Merten 478125, white, screwless, single plate

Merten 478125 is a white, screwless single wall plate designed to cover and finish a single light switch or control point. The plate is a one-piece cover that replaces existing switch frames to create a clean, uninterrupted surface around the switch opening. Its screwless design conceals fasteners for a minimal, modern appearance suitable for contemporary interiors.

Advantages

The screwless profile provides a seamless look while simplifying cleaning and maintenance. The single-piece construction offers stable mounting and consistent alignment with the switch mechanism, reducing visible gaps. The white finish matches standard interior colour palettes and coordinates with other Merten fittings for a unified visual result. The plate is compatible with standard single-module wall switches and is supplied as a single unit for straightforward installation or replacement.

How to use
