Customer Reviews for Hampton Bay Kentley Screwless 1-Gang Duplex Outlet Steel Wall Plate - Brushed Nickel

Very Beautiful modern looking plate. Easily installed and gives you a nice updated appearance. I wish the mounting screws were a little longer as they can be easily stripped, just be careful.

Very nice looking cover plate, this was a little harder to install than the single or Double Gang plate but it snapped in well. I wish the mounting Screws were a little longer as they can easily be stripped if you are not careful. This plate give you a nice modem updated appearance.

Once set its tough to remove. Product bent and doesnt sit well against wall. Will stick with traditional exposed screw plates. Like the look but function is poor.

worked as advertised- used where couldn't drill new holes

I didn't even realize when I bought this cover that there is no screw hole visible. I really like the clean lines. Easy to install with a screwdriver.

Works perfectly on are stainless steel tile wall.

The KENTLEY SCREWLESS STEEL 1-TOGGLE WALL PLATE,BRUSHED NICKEL is a very nice cover, especially if you don't like the screws showing ! This is a very well made, and really a nice looking wall plate. The thick plastic insert is what you have to install to your electrical box in the wall. Then the brushed nickel wall plate just snaps into place ! It's very easy to do, and it does look really nice.

I like the simplicity of this wall plate. The fact it is screwless adds a lot to the simplicity. The brushed nickel stands out on the wall, even in low light. There are elongated holes at the correct place in the mounting bracket so that you can easily adjust the position of the switches to match the position of the holes in the bracket. You can loosen a switch and tighten the screws for the bracket then tighten the switch screws. This makes installation easier than traditional wall plates which require you to guess how far to move a switch and try installation again. The tab at the bottom of the plate allows you to easily pry the plate off later, if necessary.

I decided on this wall plate because of its simplicity. I also wanted to try a screwless plate. There are elongated holes at the correct place in the mounting bracket so that you can easily adjust the position of the switch if necessary, without removing the bracket. The plate snaps securely into the bracket. The tab at the bottom of the plate allows easy removal of the plate after installation. Even after noting this before installation, I snapped the plate on the bracket upside down. I could still pry the plate off with a screwdriver and reinstall it properly.

The Kentley Screwless steel wall plate came in a very timely manner and it was very well packaged. The brushed nickel is very sturdy and would look nice with any decor. The fact that is screwless adds a little more style to the over all look of it and makes it stand out as something unique. I definitely recommend this wall plate for any room in the house.

This is the first time I’ve seen a wall plate that had no screws visible when it’s installed and I like it a lot. It is actually two pieces, the rear installation plate is plastic and screws into the fixture while the metal face plate snaps on to it. Super easy to install but the plates must be pried apart with a flat blade screw driver as the fit is very solid. It’s a very good quality, nice looking brushed chrome color.

When I say replacing my old switch plate with this KENTLEY SCREWLESS STEEL 1-TOGGLE WALL PLATE IN BRUSHED NICKEL was a snap - I mean that literally. In 30 seconds I went from a boring off white switch plate to this nice, modern, brushed nickle plate. it's well made and simple. Instructions are printed on the back of the package as are cleaning instructions (nothing abrasive or you'll scratch the finish!).

I didn't realize I ordered a screwless plate, but I like it.

I've already written a review!

Very pleased with this wall plate and plan to order more. They're high quality and we like how easy it is to turn the light on and off. So much better than the old fashioned flip switch and sleeker with no screw holes showing.

Beautiful and so easy to install

Updated phone jack (now DSL line) to classier look to match backsplash tile

had to trim excess plastic from inside hole

The corners of the plate were not flush, the plastic was sticking out of the metal, I had to squeeze it back together, also had to trim excess plastic from the inside of the outlet holes, and it still does not sit perfectly on the wall.

Product quality is mediocre. Already the steel front has separated from the plastic base. Plastic base is skinny, needs to be a thicker or the material stronger. Obviously not a polycarbonate material like Lutron! Small mounting tabs that insert into the base wall plate have broken off. Not designed for removing front plate without breaking!

This is a very sleek wall switchplate. It is easy to install and NO SCREWS to deal with. Looks good in every room

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

These wall plates look great in the package but are just awful! They are very difficult to install and will not stay in place. Unfortunately I purchased 9 of them and wish I hadn’t. I spent alot of $ for alot of annoyance. They will not stay in place. Wish I could return them!
