Gira System 55 frame insert, black, model 0270005

Gira System 55 frame insert in black is a front element designed to fit into Gira System 55 modular frames and compatible devices. It provides a uniform visible surface for mounting switches, sockets and control modules, enabling a consistent appearance across residential and commercial electrical installations where a black finish is required. The insert is intended as part of the System 55 concept, allowing easy replacement or rearrangement of functional modules without changing the surrounding frame.

Advantages

The black frame insert offers precise fit and alignment with other System 55 components, maintaining flush installation and even gaps. Its standard dimensions and cutouts simplify module installation and replacement, reducing installation time. The neutral black finish helps conceal fingerprints and minor surface wear while matching contemporary interior designs. The insert supports a modular approach, making future upgrades or changes to switchgear straightforward.

Suitable for

• Residential wall switch and socket installations requiring a black front element
• Commercial interiors where a consistent black finishing across multiple devices is desired
• Renovation projects needing replacement of worn or outdated front elements without rewiring
• Systems where modules are frequently replaced or upgraded as part of maintenance
