Floor Boxes & Accessories

Floor boxes are essential components for managing underfloor wiring in commercial and residential buildings. Commonly referred to as floor sockets, floor plugs, or floor power outlets, these units enable seamless access to power and data connections directly from the floor. Ideal for raised floor systems, they support clean, efficient cable management while maintaining a professional and hazard-free workspace.

How Floor Boxes & Accessories Work

Floor boxes are installed beneath raised floors or embedded in concrete subfloors, allowing electrical and data cables to terminate directly beneath desks, counters, or conference tables. When needed, users can open the lid or trim cover to access the floor plug socket or cover, making them ideal for flexible spaces.

The accessories — such as divider plates, outlet plates, and mounting frames — help manage cabling and improve safety. They also ensure easy access to connections while maintaining a neat floor appearance.

Types of Floor Boxes

Different floor box types are designed for specific installation needs and cabling configurations.

• 3-Compartment Floor Boxes: These are rectangular units with multiple sections to separate power, data, and communication cables. Ideal for offices and conference rooms requiring multiple connection points.
• Cavity Floor Grommets: Circular boxes designed to let power and data cables pass safely through raised access floors. Commonly used for less complex installations.

Types of Floor Box Accessories

There are a range of accessories that support the full functionality of floor boxes, allowing for custom setups and secure access.

• Outlet Plates: Socket plates designed to hold floor box sockets or floor-mounted sockets, compatible with both power and data connections.
• Floor Box Lids and Trims: Provide a secure and often flush surface finish. Some models offer carpet trim for seamless blending.
• Blanking Plates: Used to cover unused compartments, maintaining a clean and safe setup.
• Mounting Frames: Secure the floor box accessories in place and ensure proper alignment within the compartments.
• Divider Plates: Used to separate different cable types within a floor box to reduce interference and maintain organisation.
