Sleek Socket

Made in America

Push your furniture flat against the wall again

We make a thin plate that plugs into the top socket and hides the whole outlet. A flat cord runs down the wall to put power right where you need it.

Sits flat to the wall

The thin cover hugs the faceplate so heavy dressers and headboards can push all the way back.

No wiring work needed

You plug the prongs straight into the top receptacle without taking off screws or touching wires.

Cut for both outlet styles

We build plates for standard round holes on bottom and inverted outlets with the ground on top.

Removable wall clips

The included adhesive mounts stick along flat paint and peel away clean when you move.

Ways to start

Find the piece you need

Start with our chooser tool, browse by plug orientation, or read the notes we put together.

Wall spots

Choose by the location on your wall

Every setup is built around where the cord has to run, from low baseboards to crowded switch plates.

Customer notes

The plates people talk about most

These models get the most letters from folks who wanted heavy furniture to sit flush.

Outlet layout

Which way your outlet is hung

An ordinary wall outlet has two receptacles in a vertical pair, with one sitting right over the other. The way those openings face on your wall changes the plate you need.

Ground hole on the bottom

The round ground hole sits directly beneath the two straight narrow slots on each receptacle. This is the common layout found across most United States homes.

Ground pin down, 14 of them

Ground hole on the top

The round ground hole sits directly above the two straight narrow slots on each receptacle. A plate made for the other direction will not seat properly over these openings.

Ground pin up, 6 of them

Look closely at the face of your wall outlet to see the position of the round ground hole on the upper receptacle.

Television sets

Plates cut for wall mounted television power

These kits replace the power cord on the television itself, using a flat figure eight end with two rounded lobes or a squarish end with three openings.

Guided help

Find the right piece for your space

The chooser checks the spot on the wall, the way the outlet is hung, the length of the run, and what the far end of the cord needs to do.

Our workshop

How we build each piece

Cut by hand

We cut plates for separate left hand and right hand layouts when a light switch shares the faceplate.

Trim and fit

We trim flat profile cords so furniture rests against the baseboard without pressing on a bulky jacket.

Pack in pairs

We pack matching clips and removable adhesive strips for smooth paint and drywall.

Installation

How the plate goes on

You do not need tools or an electrician. The whole piece mounts directly over the wall outlet that is already there.

  1. 1

    Check the ground hole

    Look at the upper receptacle to see if the round ground hole sits above or below the flat slots. Make sure your plate matches that layout.

  2. 2

    Plug in the plate

    Push the prongs straight into the top receptacle. The face of the plate sits flush over both receptacles at once.

  3. 3

    Stick the flat cord

    Route the cord down the wall using the included clips and adhesive strips. Press each clip firmly into place against the baseboard or drywall.

3-Foot Outlet Concealer with 3-Outlet Strip

3-Foot Outlet Concealer with 3-Outlet Strip

Pushing a sofa or bed frame back against the baseboard usually stops short because a thick plug is in the way. We molded this thin plate to cover the whole outlet face and plug into the upper receptacle like any normal plug. The short flat cord carries power out from behind the furniture to a small three outlet block.

Placement

Using the cord and clips

The flat cord and adhesive clips are designed for open, flat wall surfaces.

How to place cords

  • Run the cord along flat, painted drywall or smooth wood trim.
  • Place furniture directly over the flat cord against the wall.
  • Use the figure eight plug for sets with two rounded power pins.
  • Use the squarish plug for sets with three power openings.

What to avoid doing

  • Do not place the cord under rugs or carpet.
  • Do not run the cord through holes or inside walls.
  • Do not plug extension cords into other extension cords.
  • Do not apply adhesive clips to textured plaster, wallpaper, or fresh paint.

A family workshop in the United States

We make low profile plates and flat cords in our own shop so heavy furniture can sit flush against the wall. Our pieces fit standard outlets, inverted outlets, and plates with a light switch beside the plug. We cut and pack each kit for homes with everyday wall setups.

How our covers fit on the wall

An ordinary wall outlet has two receptacles. Our plate plugs into the top receptacle and covers the entire face. A standard plug sticks out and keeps your furniture off the wall. Our plate sits flat so your couch or bed frame can slide back to the baseboard. The thin cord runs down the wall along the floor line instead of sticking out into the room.

Look at the round ground hole on your outlet. If the round hole sits below the two flat slots, choose our standard model. If the round hole sits at the top, choose our inverted model. A plate made for a standard orientation will not fit on an inverted receptacle. We cut distinct covers for both layouts so the cord always exits straight down.

Ground holePiecesWhat it means
Ground pin down14The round hole sits under the two flat slots. This is how most outlets are set in a wall, so the plate reads right way up.
Ground pin up6The round hole sits above the slots. Older rooms and remodels are often wired this way, and a plate cut for the usual layout would hang upside down.
  • We are a small family run workshop in the United States.
  • Our flat cord runs under removable adhesive clips that come in the box.
  • Adhesive strips stick to flat drywall and do not hold on textured plaster, wallpaper or fresh paint.
  • Television kits come with either a figure eight cord end or a three hole cord end.
  • Plates made for side by side light switches come in left hand and right hand versions.

Where to begin

Check the ground hole position on your outlet first to get the orientation right. Then pick the model built for your specific piece of furniture.

Questions and answers

What to check on your wall before you buy

Which way round is my wall outlet hung?

Look at the round hole for the ground pin. If the round hole sits below the two flat slots, your outlet is right side up. If the round hole sits above the flat slots, your outlet is upside down, and you need our inverted plate.

Do I have to unscrew my existing wall plate?

No tools are needed for this setup. You leave your existing faceplate screwed to the wall and push our thin cover directly into the upper receptacle. The cover hides the whole face.

Does this plug into the top or bottom opening?

Our cover is built to plug straight into the top receptacle. The back prongs line up there, and the rest of the thin face drops down to cover the bottom receptacle completely.

Will the adhesive strips ruin my painted drywall?

The clips hold on standard smooth painted walls and pull away clean later. They do not hold on textured plaster, fresh paint or wallpaper, so test the surface before you press them on.

Which cord end fits the back of my television?

Check the power port on the back of your television set. We make one cord that ends in a flat figure eight shape with two rounded lobes, and another cord that ends in a squarish shape with three openings.

What if my outlet shares a plate with a light switch?

We make wide plates cut to match that exact setup. Look at your wall to see whether the switch sits to the left or to the right of the outlet, because those two pieces are built differently.

From homes like yours

How these look once they are up

The headboard sits right against the baseboard now. The flat cord runs along the trim to the nightstand without sticking out behind the frame.

Marcus T., Behind a bed

Our kitchen outlet was installed upside down with the ground hole on top. Getting the match for that layout meant the cord ran straight down as intended.

Elena R., Beside a bench

The thin television lead plugged straight into the screen with the squarish three opening connector. The wall below it is just the white strip painted over.

We make these pieces to solve the gap between your furniture and your outlets. Check the direction of your ground pin before choosing your set.
