Middle Atlantic EVO FLR BX Surf CVR W Solid LID - EFB6810BTCSN

Middle Atlantic EFB6810BTCSN EVO Floor Box Surface Cover with Solid Lid

Overview

The Middle Atlantic EFB6810BTCSN is a surface-mount cover plate designed for the EVO FLR BX concrete floor box system, finished in satin nickel and configured for standard receptacle cutouts. If you're finishing out a conference room AV installation, a boardroom podium floor outlet, or a clean-look commercial floor service point, this cover is the trim piece that closes out the box with a polished, professional appearance. TAA compliance means it clears federal procurement requirements without additional documentation gymnastics — a practical detail when the project is government, education, or any publicly funded facility.

The EFB6810BTCSN pairs with Middle Atlantic's EVO floor box ecosystem, a product family built around modular, field-configurable floor service assemblies used widely in AV integration, structured cabling, and commercial floor box installations. The satin nickel finish sits neutrally alongside stainless steel furniture legs, aluminum rack trim, and standard commercial interior palettes — it won't fight the room's aesthetic the way a brushed brass or chrome finish might.

Key Features

• Surface Cover Style: The surface mounting profile keeps the cover flush and low-profile over the box opening — no recessed-lid geometry to catch foot traffic or rolling equipment. In high-traffic AV rooms or training centers where carts and chairs cross the floor regularly, that flush contact point reduces snag and wear risk compared to lipped or recessed alternatives.
• Satin Nickel Finish: Satin nickel is a practical finish choice for commercial interiors — it resists fingerprint visibility better than polished chrome and holds up cosmetically in environments where the floor box sees regular interaction. It reads as intentional and finished rather than utilitarian, which matters in client-facing spaces.
• Standard Receptacle Type: Configured for standard receptacle cutouts, which means compatibility with the broadest range of modular insert options in the EVO system. You're not locked into proprietary or specialty configurations — standard inserts for power, data, and AV connectivity all align to this cutout geometry.
• TAA Compliant — Manufactured in India: TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance is verified for this SKU, with country of origin listed as India (an approved TAA-designated country). For GSA schedule projects, federal building upgrades, or any procurement subject to FAR 52.225-5, this cover clears the compliance check without substitution or variance. Don't substitute a non-TAA cover on a compliant floor box install — the cover is part of the visible assembly and may be subject to the same procurement audit.

Integration & Compatibility

The EFB6810BTCSN is engineered as a cover component within the Middle Atlantic EVO floor box line. When specifying this cover, confirm the base box model in your bill of materials — EVO floor boxes come in varying depths and configurations, and the cover must correspond to the correct box variant (the EFB6810 designation maps to a specific box family within the EVO series). Mismatching a cover to the wrong box depth or cutout pattern will result in fit issues at install.

For AV infrastructure projects where floor boxes are integrated with structured cabling and AV pathway systems, the satin nickel finish is available in coordinated trim options across the Middle Atlantic line, which simplifies specifying a consistent finish across multiple floor service points in a single space. If the project specifies a different finish, verify availability across the EVO cover SKU range before committing to a single finish standard in the design documents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the EFB6810BTCSN TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The EFB6810BTCSN is TAA compliant, with a Federal Ops country of origin of India, which is a TAA-designated country. It is suitable for GSA schedule and federally funded procurement.

The EFB6810BTCSN is the detail piece that determines whether a floor box installation looks like a finished product or a rough-in. The satin nickel surface cover is paired with standard receptacle geometry — which sounds minor until you're on a job site trying to source a replacement cover that fits a non-standard cutout three weeks after the box was poured into concrete.

Technical Highlights:

• TAA Compliance: Verified TAA-compliant with India as the country of origin — clears federal and GSA procurement without variance requests. Specify this SKU by name on the BOM when TAA is a project requirement.
• Surface Cover Style: The surface profile sits flush against the box face, which reduces the chance of a lid edge catching foot traffic or chair casters — a real concern in open floor plan AV rooms and training spaces with rolling furniture.
• Standard Receptacle Cutout: Standard geometry means you're not locked into a proprietary insert at the time of the cover install. Modular power, data, and AV inserts for the EVO system slot in without adapter plates or custom machining.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm the base EVO box model number before ordering this cover — EVO boxes vary by depth and cutout configuration, and a cover-to-box mismatch discovered after the concrete pour is an expensive correction.
• Satin nickel is a single finish option. If your project specifies a consistent finish across multiple floor service points in the same space, verify that the same finish is available across every EVO cover SKU you need before finalizing the finish standard in the design documents.

The EFB6810BTCSN is the right spec for federal, education, or government-funded AV and structured cabling installations where TAA compliance is non-negotiable and the floor box needs to present cleanly in a client-facing or public-access space.
