Building regulations are becoming more and more stringent, with alternative building materials and products being developed with improved safety in mind. Scolmore is continually assessing its existing product range to ensure they meet and keep up to date with any change in legislation and guidelines, as well as making improvements that will benefit installers.

With this in mind, Scolmore has launched a new and improved version of its FlameGuard Back Box to offer total peace of mind in the event of a fire. They are the only fire-rated dry lining back boxes on the market that have ‘configurable’ lugs allowing installation into different depths of plasterboard.

With installers tending to use double-layered boards, requiring depths of up to 30mm, standards versions do not fit. Scolmore’s new FlameGuard Back Box has been designed to work with up to 30mm boards and operate in exactly the same way. It is as simple and quick to install as a standard cavity wall box.
