Middle Atlantic EFB45BTSN EVO Floor Box Flush Cover Solid Lid
Overview
The Middle Atlantic EFB45BTSN is a flush-mount solid lid cover designed for the EVO Series EFB45 raised floor box. Where an open-port cover would leave unused receptacle slots exposed — collecting debris or creating a trip-hazard lip — the EFB45BTSN closes the box completely flush with the floor surface, maintaining a clean, professional finish in boardrooms, command centers, control rooms, and open-plan offices where floor boxes are part of the infrastructure but not always in active use.
The satin nickel finish integrates with the broader EVO floor box hardware family, so a single installation can present a consistent surface across power, data, and blank-cover positions. TAA compliance (Trade Agreements Act) makes the EFB45BTSN a viable specification item for U.S. federal government facilities, GSA-schedule projects, and any procurement requiring domestic or qualifying-country sourcing.
Key Features
- Flush Cover Style: sits level with the surrounding floor tile or surface — no raised lip to snag cables or catch rolling equipment, which matters in high-traffic data center aisles and raised-floor server rooms.
- Solid Lid Design: completely blanks off the receptacle opening when the port is not in use, keeping dust, debris, and liquids out of the floor box cavity — an important detail in facilities where floor boxes sit unused for extended periods between reconfigurations.
- Standard Receptacle Type: fits the EFB45 floor box's standard receptacle cutout, so it pairs directly with the existing box hardware without modification or adapter plates.
- Satin Nickel Finish: matches the EVO Series hardware palette, allowing installers to mix populated and blank-cover positions in the same floor box without visible finish mismatches.
- TAA Compliant: qualifies for U.S. federal, state, and municipal procurement programs that require Trade Agreements Act compliance — document this at specification time to avoid substitution requests during bid review.
Integration & Compatibility
The EFB45BTSN is designed as a cover component for the Middle Atlantic EVO Series EFB45 floor box platform. Specify it alongside active port inserts (power, data, AV) when a floor box position needs to be blanked rather than populated. Because it uses the standard receptacle format, it can be swapped out later if a previously unused port position needs to be activated — the floor box itself does not require re-installation. Verify finish compatibility with other EVO Series components on the same installation before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions

A: The EFB45BTSN is finished in satin nickel, consistent with the EVO Series hardware family.
Q: Does the EFB45BTSN cover sit flush with the floor?
A: Yes. The cover style is flush, meaning it sits level with the surrounding floor surface with no raised lip.
Q: Can the EFB45BTSN be replaced with an active insert later?
A: Because the EFB45BTSN uses the standard receptacle format of the EFB45 floor box, it can be swapped out and replaced with an active port insert if a previously unused position needs to be activated — without re-installing the floor box itself.
