WEBANG Pop-Up Floor Outlet Box, Stainless Steel
Product description
Quick overview
If you want power closer to a table or kitchen work surface, rather than relying on a wall outlet and routing a cord across the room, this WEBANG pop-up floor outlet is designed to sit flush in a floor or countertop installation. The kit includes a black stainless steel cover with a twisting lock, a 20A GFCI duplex tamper-resistant receptacle and a galvanized steel junction box with side and bottom knockouts.
The cover rises when needed and folds away when it is not in use. Its IP44-rated gasket is described as protecting against water spray from any direction while closed, that is a specific protection level, not a reason to treat the outlet as suitable for every wet location.
How to use it
This is a built-in outlet, not a portable power block. The listed applications include hardwood, carpet and tile floors, as well as granite or marble kitchen countertops. It may also suit residential rooms and business spaces such as boardrooms, lobbies, waiting rooms and hospital rooms, where having a connection point away from the wall can be useful.
For example, in a meeting room, the outlet could give someone seated at a table access to power without a cord stretching back to the perimeter of the room. Keep in mind that installation should be done by a qualified professional, and the existing wiring needs to be checked for compatibility. Standard instructions are supplied with the unit.
Practical tips
Think about where people will actually need power before choosing an installation point. The cover measures 4.75" x 4.75", and the overall unit is listed as 4.75" x 4.75" x 3.5". The closed cover height is 2.7" and the raised height is 2", the junction box measures 4" x 4" x 3.15". Those dimensions are useful when planning the opening and checking the space below the surface.
The cover’s twisting lock keeps it shut when not in use, while the pop-up design gives access when needed. A practical limitation is that the IP44 spray protection applies when the cover is closed, so this detail should not be read as protection for an open outlet exposed to water. The black finish may also stand out against some flooring or countertop colours.
Buying questions
What comes in the kit? It includes the stainless steel flip-up cover, one 20A GFCI duplex tamper-resistant receptacle and a galvanized steel junction box with side and bottom knockouts.
Can it be installed in tile or carpet? Those are among the stated flooring applications, along with hardwood. Granite and marble countertops are also listed. The surface and wiring still need to suit the installation.
Is this a straightforward DIY installation? The product information recommends installation by a qualified professional and says to check local wiring compatibility. If you are choosing an outlet for a quick plug-in setup, a portable option is a different, simpler approach.
In your case
It may suit you if you are planning a permanent outlet where wall sockets are awkward to reach, and want a cover that hides the receptacle when it is idle. It won't suit you if you need a portable solution, or if you need the outlet to remain protected from spray while open. The supplied GFCI duplex receptacle and tamper-resistant design are relevant details for a built-in power point, but the installation location and existing wiring should guide the final decision.
