The SocketLoc Plug Socket Cover – Single is a lockable cover for standard UK single plug sockets, designed to stop children or vulnerable adults from tampering with live sockets. Once fitted, it helps keep plugs and switches safely out of reach while still allowing you to use the socket as normal.

The cover is opened and closed with a key, so adults stay in control of when the socket can be accessed. SocketLoc can be fitted over most single plug sockets and, in some cases, light switches, and can be installed left- or right-handed to suit the position of the socket. It is not suitable for sockets mounted on a surface back box.

Shipping

Fledglings currently ships within the United Kingdom (including the Isle of Man and Channel Islands) only. For international orders, please email us at enquiries@fledglings.org.uk as we may be able to arrange shipping offline.

Shipping Information within the UK

Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.

If your order includes items from more than one supplier, an additional charge may apply to contribute towards shipping costs. This allows us to keep product prices as low as possible rather than building delivery costs into every item.

Why We’ve Made Changes to Our Shipping

Royal Mail recently increased its prices to us by over 30%. We made the decision not to pass that full increase directly on to our customers.

To help keep delivery charges as fair and sustainable as possible, we have moved to DPD for all orders dispatched from our own warehouse.

Warehouse Orders (Dispatched by Fledglings)

DPD £5.49 + VAT

  • Order cut-off time: 12:00pm
  • Orders placed before 12:00pm will be dispatched the same day (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday)
  • We do not dispatch on Thursdays. This helps us manage rising courier costs and keep delivery charges lower overall.
  • Our warehouse is closed at weekends and on bank holidays.

Once dispatched, you will receive tracking details directly from DPD.

Drop-Ship Supplier Orders

Important Notes:

  1. Items must be returned with original packaging and tags. Refunds or exchanges will only be processed if the item can be resold.
  2. Custom or made-to-order products may not be refundable unless faulty. Please check product listings carefully before ordering.
  3. For hygiene reasons, we cannot accept returns on certain items such as underwear or jewellery. These will be clearly marked on the product listing.

  5. If you receive a damaged or faulty item, we will refund the full cost including shipping once the item has been returned and assessed.

Unsuitable Returns

If an item is returned in a condition unsuitable for resale (for example used, damaged, missing packaging or unhygienic), we cannot provide a full refund.

In such cases, you will be given two options:

  • We can return the item to you for a fee of £5 (payable in advance).
  • We may offer a partial refund at our discretion, depending on the condition of the item.

Any item returned more than 21 days after delivery

If the item is from our own warehouse, we may issue a partial refund at our discretion based on the condition of the item. If the item is from one of our suppliers, we will liaise with them on your behalf.

Refunds (as applicable)

Once your return has been received and inspected, you will be notified by email of the approval or rejection of your refund.

  1. Refunds may take up to 3 working days to appear in your account once processed.
  2. Drop-ship suppliers may apply a restocking fee, which will be deducted from your refund. Please contact us before ordering if you are unsure about an item’s suitability.

As a not for profit CIC, we kindly ask that customers cover the cost of return postage. Every purchase supports Contact, the national charity for families with disabled children.
