Electrical Fixings, Screws, Plugs & Installation Accessories
Shop electrical fixings at Order Electrical, with screws, plugs, anchors and specialist fixing solutions for electricians, electrical contractors, installers and other professional trades.
Fixings are required throughout an electrical installation for securely mounting electrical accessories, consumer units, enclosures, cable containment, conduit, trunking, cable tray, lighting and other equipment to suitable surfaces.
Our range can include screws, wall plugs, masonry fixings, plasterboard and cavity fixings, anchors and specialist electrical installation fixings, providing options for different substrates and mounting requirements.
The correct fixing depends heavily on the surface being worked with. Brick, block, concrete, plasterboard, timber and hollow walls can each require a different type of fixing to provide an appropriate and secure installation.
For electrical contractors, keeping a selection of commonly used screws and fixings available can make installation work more efficient, particularly when moving between different mounting surfaces and types of electrical equipment.
Choosing the Right Fixing
When choosing an electrical fixing, first identify the material you are fixing into. A fixing designed for solid masonry will behave differently from one intended for plasterboard, a hollow cavity or timber, so the substrate should determine the type of fixing selected.
Next consider the weight and type of equipment being supported, along with the screw diameter, fixing length and required hole size. Heavier equipment such as consumer units, enclosures and substantial cable containment may require a different fixing solution from lightweight accessories or cable supports.
The condition and thickness of the mounting surface should also be considered. Where a fixing has a specified load capacity, ensure the manufacturer's installation requirements are followed, including the correct drill diameter and minimum fixing depth where applicable.
