Middle Atlantic EVO FLR BX Surf CVR W FLR Insert - EFB6810CTCBK

Middle Atlantic EFB6810CTCBK Surface Floor Box Cover with Floor Insert

The Middle Atlantic EFB6810CTCBK is a black surface-mount cover designed for the EFB68 series floor box accessories line. If you're finishing a concrete floor box installation in a conference room, lobby, or AV-equipped space and need a surface cover that accepts standard receptacles, this is the correct lid — it keeps the box accessible and the finish clean without requiring a recessed-flush cutout in the floor. The black finish blends with dark floor tile or polished concrete common in commercial installs.

Key Features

• Surface Cover Style: mounts on top of the floor box opening rather than flush-recessed into the floor, which means no precise depth grinding on concrete — useful when slab depth or existing pour height doesn't permit a flush lid.
• Standard Receptacle Type: accepts standard-footprint receptacle modules, so you can drop in the power or data inserts already in your Middle Atlantic floor box kit without sourcing specialty inserts.
• TAA Compliant: meets Trade Agreements Act requirements — this cover qualifies for federal, state, and municipal projects that mandate TAA-compliant components throughout the infrastructure chain.
• Black Finish: a neutral, low-profile color that coordinates with most commercial flooring in AV presentation spaces, boardrooms, and security operations centers.
• Country of Origin — India: manufactured in India, documented for Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) compliance reporting where country-of-origin disclosure is required on government contracts.

Integration & Compatibility

The EFB6810CTCBK is part of Middle Atlantic's EFB68 concrete floor box cover family. Verify the cover part number against your specific EFB68 box model before ordering — Middle Atlantic offers multiple cover configurations (surface vs. flush, with and without flip lids) and the wrong cover will not seat correctly. If your project specifies Middle Atlantic floor box covers broadly, confirm the surface-mount style is called out in the drawings; flush-mount covers are a separate SKU.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the EFB6810CTCBK TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The EFB6810CTCBK is TAA compliant and manufactured in India, which is a designated country under the Trade Agreements Act.

Q: What receptacle type does the EFB6810CTCBK accept?

A: It accepts standard receptacle modules. It is not designed for specialty or modular keystone-style inserts outside the Middle Atlantic EFB68 series ecosystem.

Q: Is this a flush or surface cover?

A: Surface. The EFB6810CTCBK mounts on top of the floor box opening. If your installation requires a flush-to-floor lid, you need a different cover SKU from the EFB68 family.

Q: What color is the EFB6810CTCBK?

A: Black.

Ted Perry

The EFB6810CTCBK is the detail that finishes a floor box rough-in cleanly — its surface-mount cover style means you're not committed to a precision flush grind on the concrete slab, which matters when you're closing out a security operations center or boardroom AV install and the slab pour height left you with limited depth margin.

Technical Highlights:

• Surface Mount Style: eliminates the slab-depth constraint of flush covers — if the box is proud of the finish floor by even a few millimeters, surface mount seats correctly where a flush cover wouldn't.
• TAA Compliance: the India country-of-origin is a TAA-designated country, so this cover satisfies TAA requirements on federal and GSA schedule projects without substitution or waiver paperwork.
• Standard Receptacle Format: direct drop-in for the receptacle modules already specified in the EFB68 series build-out — no adapter rings, no special-order inserts.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm the surface-mount cover style against your project drawings before ordering — Middle Atlantic's EFB68 cover lineup includes flush-mount and flip-lid variants that use the same base box but are not interchangeable with the EFB6810CTCBK surface cover.
• Black finish works well against dark polished concrete and charcoal tile, but may read as a visible contrast on light-colored or beige flooring — worth a finish-sample check before specifying across a large multi-room project.

Best fit for government facilities, federal security operations centers, and TAA-mandated commercial builds where the floor box infrastructure needs compliant components documented through to the cover level — not just the power and data inserts.
