New Part M additions for GridPro

Scolmore has expanded its GridPro range of interchangeable mounting plates and modules to include Part M frontplates.

The Part M GridPro Frontplates range offers a visually contrasting, flexible range of wiring accessories and will join Scolmore’s comprehensive Part M collection, which has been designed and developed as a high quality, flexible and modern solution to assisted living requirements. All Part M products – as well as Mode and Polar moulded white accessories – are manufactured using Urea Formaldehyde, which has similar inherent properties to antimicrobial additives that inhibit the growth of infectious diseases. When independently tested, all products achieved a 99.99% kill off rate across all four types of the strains of bacteria – MRSA, E-Coli, Salmonella and Klebsiella Pneumonia.

The new GridPro additions comprise 1-gang, 2-gang, 3-gang and 4-gang standard switch plates. One of the key features of the GridPro design is the fact that there is no requirement for a yoke with the 1-4-gang frontplates – the modules are secured to the back of the GridPro frontplates via the screw feature on the modules. The benefit of not having to use a yoke is that it allows installers to use standard back boxes. These new frontplates join the growing Part M range which also comprises 1-gang, 2-gang and 3-gang wide rockers. With ease of visibility in mind, these wide rockers are an ideal choice for assisted living installations and to aid with Part M compliance.

Products from the Mode, Mode Part M and Polar ranges have been specified and installed across a huge range of applications including schools, hospitals, care homes, hotels, offices and leisure complexes.
