Crap camera it been through the works and isn't as sharp as it used to be but was a good photo snapper in its days ... its a galaxy II got a galaxy 4 on its way soon.

Ps added new photo to OP
 
looks like a bean can.
 
Its that rigid plastic sheeting with hollow squared shaped lattice down the center ... the stuff they sometimes replace smashed bog windows with on the cheap.

Ahhhh thats a great cover!

When I was in spain last year I was browsing a shop, Anyways I had to take a step back to let someone past and whacked my elbow off something hard and sharp.
Imagine my surprise/shock when I turned round to see this!

The worst of it all was on the left you can see a rack for crisps and just off the pic to the right was a rack for kiddies sweets!
Oh and it was only about 3ft off the ground.....

:(

That's quite a tidy looking job.

It would be a shame to hide it behind a cover .............

I can beat that went to a shop where lighting kept tripping was wired to 16th so no rcd cover took a while but eventually found a similar metal crisp box stand for customers and kids alike to pick out at but the frame was live and was only fitted a week earlier 'coincidence'! NOT!!!! it had been screwed in the corner of 2 walls straight through a lighting cable ... cable well within zone... can't figure how no-one get a belt :whatchutalkingabout

This is a good example for why fitting RCDs on all circuits buried in wall is a good idea
 
It's a sheet of Corex. It's stuff like that, that keeps show like "I can't believe i am alive" on discovery afloat.

Don't see what your problem is, it looks like the magic RCDs are all present. :)
