Single-Gang Outlet Cover Pack

This six-pack of self-closing outlet covers replaces standard single-toggle wall plates on center-screw outlets. Each plate measures 3 inches wide by 4.75 inches high and features spring-loaded shutters that slide shut automatically when a plug is removed. The white polished finish covers existing paint chips or dents around the outlet. Installation requires only a screwdriver and takes minutes per plate.

Automatic Shutter Operation

The spring-loaded mechanism closes the outlet openings without any user action once a cord is unplugged. This removes the need to track separate plastic caps that can become choking hazards. The covers are sized specifically for center-screw outlet configurations and will not fit decora-style outlets with top and bottom screws. No moving parts are exposed to curious fingers during normal use.

Oversized Design and Professional Heritage

Each plate is slightly oversized at 4.44 inches high by 3 inches wide by 0.31 inches deep to hide wall imperfections left by old hardware. The manufacturer has supplied childproofing professionals across the US and Canada for 32 years. The six-count pack covers multiple outlets in a nursery, playroom or hallway without mixing hardware styles.

Questions about this item

How do I install the self-closing cover on a single center-screw outlet, and which step do people miss?

Remove the old plate, align the new cover over the single centre screw hole, and tighten that one screw; the step often missed is confirming the outlet is the centre-screw style before starting.

What maintenance will the spring-loaded sliding covers need over time?

The internal springs are designed for long-term operation; no routine maintenance is required beyond occasional dusting of the sliding mechanism.

What physical limit appears first when the cover is used constantly in a busy household?

The .31 in depth and 4.44 in x 3 in footprint determine how much cord clearance remains behind the plate; heavy plugs can press against the wall before the spring mechanism wears.
