Mix & Match: design tailored to your needs.

Your socket outlets should match your switches as much as your overall interior. That’s why we have developed the modular Gira System 55: all components of the Gira design lines have uniform measurements of 55 x 55 mm. This includes both switches and socket outlets, along with other smart devices. You can thus freely combine or exchange frame variants in all kinds of colours, shapes, and materials.

Reliable companions in everyday life.

Computer or smartphones at the home office, toaster and coffee machine in the kitchen, TV and loudspeakers in the living room – socket outlets are indispensable in any room

But Gira products are more than a power supply: they serve as orientation lights or chargers for mobile devices and can even be installed outdoors.

This allows you to retrofit socket outlets fast and easy, without tearing walls open.

Socket outlets can also prove useful on the balcony, terrace, or in the garden. Maybe you want to take your computer outside on a sunny day, hang up some festive lights in the garden at night, or power your electric gardening tools? With Gira socket outlets for outdoor areas, you can do all of that: a weatherproof frame (IP44 standard) and a hinged lid protect your installation against rain and small particles. If you want to combine your outdoor power supply with a convenient lighting solution, the Gira light and energy profile will do the trick.

Surface-mounted socket outlets for retrofittings.

Surface-mounted solutions are ideal for garages or basements, as they can be mounted without tearing walls open. If you’d like to retrofit socket outlets in your home, you can choose between three design lines: Gira E2, Gira Studio, and Gira Standard 55.

Safety Plus: increased contact protection with Shutter.

Gira socket outlets marked by the label "Safety Plus" have an integrated protection device called "Shutter". This smart device shuts the outlet’s power connection until a plug is inserted to prevent accidental contact.
