This exclusive cover can only be bought from SSP Direct
This popular locking cover initially designed to prevent those with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, special needs and children from tampering with dangerous plug sockets and switches.
This locking cover solves the following problems:
- It is primarily designed to prevent any unauthorised or perhaps infirmed person from tampering with electrical sockets and plugs
- It can also ensure essential appliances are not removed or stolen
- It has been proven to protect sockets from vandalism and accidental damage
- Finally, some customers use this to control costs by preventing unauthorised people using their electricity
Specifications
- This robust cover is constructed from toughened, 3mm thick, shatter-proof polycarbonate, and has a strong, vandal-proof camlock
- This cover is clear so you can see what is plugged in and if the switch is on or off.
- It comes with suitable fixings so can simply attach it over the top of your existing plug sockets. No electrician needed.

Vulnerable children & adults in the home
This cover provides huge relief to carers with vulnerable people living at home. Here are some of the scenarios we have been told about by our customers:
- Stopping a child or adult with additional needs flicking switches repeatedly, or poking dangerous items into sockets, putting themselves at risk
- Preventing a vulnerable person accessing dangerous equipment like kettles, cookers and hobs in-between supervision or carer's visits.
- Preventing an elderly person unplugging equipment like the wifi
- Each cover comes with two keys. If you order more than one cover at the same time, these will be keyed alike, so one key will open all the covers you buy. Extra keys can be purchased and keyed alike if ordered at the same time.
Schools and Additional needs settings
- Many additional need schools choose this product following risk assessments to prevent children from injuring themselves and others.
- It can prevent disruption in the class with equipment being turned off during lesson.
- It can also stop children repeatedly flicking socket switches or lights, perhaps due to sensory processing disorder.
- It prevents vulnerable children putting dangerous items into sockets.
Care Homes & Hospitals
Whilst it has all of the benefits listed above to a vulnerable person, this cover has the added benefit of protecting sockets from being damaged by mobile trolleys, equipment and beds. This cover can also be used to stop vital equipment being unplugged.
Police & Prisons
Protects switches and prevents equipment being unplugged and vandalised, or even used in violence towards staff, themselves or others.
Public Spaces
Prevents equipment being unplugged or tampered with by unauthorised people in places such as shopping centres, offices and airports. This could also be used to lock-out sockets, to prevent them being used for unauthorised equipment.
Will this product work for me?
This versatile cover is designed to fit over any single electrical socket that is either wall mounted or set within the wall. It is however worth checking the external dimensions of the cover (below) to make sure you have enough wall space around your socket.
Supplied in two parts, this cover has a hole at the bottom of the curved section of the cover. This allows your plug lead to pass through it and then be locked onto the base frame provided.
The lead will run between the frame (which attaches to the wall) and the curved lockable cover. This means that plugs can be easily changed over time without the need to unscrew the whole cover from the wall.
Surface Mounted Socket?
If the socket you are covering is quite deep or perhaps has conduit wires in trunking going into the top or bottom of it, you may also need to purchase
the spacer shown in the link below.
Package Contains:
- 1 x single socket protector
- 4 x screws and wall plug for easy fitting
- 2 x key (more keys available below for multiple users)
Dimensions
- Internal Height 140mm | External Height 207mm
- Internal Width 121mm | External Width 165mm
- Internal Depth 76mm
Take care when fitting
Before fitting this cover, we ask all customers to assess the risks and take advice if needed. This cover should ideally only be locked when the socket is in the off position.
Delivery: Next working day when ordered before 4pm. Delivery is free when you spend over £75
