Surface mounting - When should you choose surface-mounted switches and sockets?

You choose surface-mounted switches and sockets when flush mounting is not possible or not desired. This may be the case in renovation projects, technical rooms, industrial environments or on walls where you want to minimise structural work.

A surface-mounted installation can also be used deliberately as a visible design element. The Niko surface-mounting kit is suitable for lofts, modern homes, art galleries, hotels and restaurants, for example.
