Akubela Aura Series Double-Gang Mounting Backplate

Akubela Aura Series Double-Gang Mounting Backplate

The Akubela Aura Series Double Backplate is a mounting accessory engineered for installers who are combining two Aura smart switch or sensor modules into a single double-gang wall opening. It sits behind the Aura frame and modules, creating a flush, rigid foundation so the finished installation sits flat against the wall with no visible gaps or movement. As part of the Aura ecosystem's modular design, this backplate lets installers mix switches, sockets and climate controls within one elegant double-width fitting, matching both the technical requirements of the wiring and the aesthetic of the room.

Key Features

• Purpose-built for double-gang Aura Series smart switch and sensor combinations
• Provides a secure, flush mounting base behind Aura aluminium frames
• Designed to pair with Aura's ultra-thin backbox and screw-free installation system
• Supports modular configurations mixing switches, sockets, and temperature controls
• Compatible with Aura Series KNX and smart home panel modules
• Suits both retrofit projects and new-build electrical rough-ins
• Durable construction designed to withstand daily use behind the finished faceplate
• Backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty

Typical Use Cases

This backplate is intended for electricians and smart home integrators fitting double-width Aura installations, such as a switch paired with a socket, or two switch modules side by side, within KNX-enabled homes and villas. Because the Aura Series can connect directly to KNX systems or link through an Akubela HyPanel for broader smart home integration, the double backplate is commonly specified in projects where a single wall point needs to control multiple circuits or functions without adding extra wall clutter. It is well suited to both new residential builds and renovation projects where a clean, minimal in-wall finish is required.
