Crabtree Black Nickel

Nov 01, 2004 4 Replies

Can anyone point me to a reasonably-priced source of these electrical fittings? We saw them in B&Q and they would look good in the barn we hope to be moving into soon. B&Q price of GBP 19+ for a 2-gang switched socket is a bit OTT though. Googling hasn't turned up anything useful yet.


Try calling a wholesaler like WF or Newey and Eyre with a shopping list for reasonable quantity and ask them for a price. Then squeeze them for a bit more discount

.

We used these in the kitchen:

Not Crabtree, but very good quality - at least as good as the standard Crabtree sockets I've used elsewhere in the house. Most pleased with them. They look superb against tumbled slate.

Can anyone point me to a reasonably-priced (i.e. as cheap as possible) source of these accessories? We saw some in B&Q, and thought over 19 quid for a 2-gang switched socket was a bit much. Googling has so far produced nothing useful.

Were hoping to move into a converted barn soon (the deal is on once again, for the third time), and they would look 10*n times better than the standard white plastic stuff that's there at the moment. Then there's the need for black plugtops, I suppose.
