It’s the people that have polished nickel black where you have to give it a wipe over with a duster before you put your invoice in! Oh, and remove your shoe covers!
People don’t realise how dirty sockets get until they choose chrome!

Flat plate will generally need a deeper box than a standard white (or raised profile) accessory so you probably need to change the boxes to fit the accessory or change the accessories to fit the current boxes!

Or just stick the original standard white ones back on!
