## Description

Arlington CP3540-1C 3-1/2 Inch and 4 Inch Ceiling Box Cover. Arlington's CP3540-1 covers unused 3-1/2 inch and 4 inch round and octagonal boxes prior to the installation of a fan or fixture. Non-rusting, paintable plastic.

Review: Easy to install and they look great! - I needed to cover two areas where I had taken out two fans and these covers worked great to cover the electrical boxes. They were easy to install and accommodated the older style electrical boxes. Once I installed and tightened them I painted them to match the ceiling paint. These look great and I highly recommend.
Review: Excellent product - It was simple to install and well made. I needed something to cover where the lights over the fireplace where. The lights interfeared with the motion of the TV mount and had to be removed. It now looks professional and almost like speakers. The old gang box cover just did not look finished, this does. I highly recommend this product

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do I need to prime before painting?**
A: You should be able to paint it w/o priming.

**Q: can this cover the place in the ceiling where an old wired smoke alarm was?**
A: See my answer for using this wall plate to cover recessed can lighting, same procedure. Assuming the wall plate is large enough to cover the area the smoke alarm was, you would  then push the wires are far as possible into the wall and affix this wall plate with an adhesive caulk type product such as Loctite Power Grab.
Place a continuous bead of the adhesive around the  entire edge/lip of the wall plate and hold firmly in place for a few minutes for it to adhere. Then wipe off excess adhesive with clean wet rag.

**Q: Does this come in a 'pop corn' texture finish? My ceiling has pop corn finish.**
A: No, it is very lightly textured. But you can buy that popcorn finish in a can, and spray it on.

**Q: Do these come in bigger sizes? I have 6” speaker holes I need to cover.**
A: Yes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install and they look great!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product

It was simple to install and well made. I needed something to cover where the lights over the fireplace where. The lights interfeared with the motion of the TV mount and had to be removed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice covers for hiding unwanted openings
*by B***O on September 26, 2022*

These are a nice, simple solution for covering unneeded electrical openings on the wall. The finish on the covers is perfect for painting and easy on/off if needed. The bracket is plastic, however, and makes it difficult to push the cover all the way into the opening to fit the cover to the wall. We had to use the edge of a 5-in-1tool slipped in behind the bracket to snap the cover into place completely and gently remove it so they fit tight enough. A metal bracket would be better--otherwise, these were better than the flat metal covers available at the hardware store.
