The Wiremold Omnibox Series Single Gang Cast Iron Floor Box blends rugged durability with precise, user‑friendly functionality. Engineered for commercial environments where reliable power and data access are essential, this floor box combines heavy‑duty construction with advanced protection features to keep outlets, data ports, and communication connections secure, clean, and ready for use. With the trustworthy TopGuard protection built into every Omnibox cover assembly, this floor box delivers a dependable, maintenance‑free solution for high‑traffic spaces—from conference rooms and offices to hospitality loyalties and retail environments. Whether you’re planning a new build or retrofitting an existing floor, the Omnibox Single Gang Cast Iron Floor Box provides a robust foundation for safe, code‑compliant power distribution that stands up to daily wear and the challenges of concrete installations.
- TopGuard protection with integral cover assemblies: All Omnibox floor box components feature TopGuard protection to safeguard the power and communication compartments from water, dirt, and debris. This design creates an effective barrier at the point where the floor box meets the floor surface, helping to preserve connection integrity and extend the life of internal components. The TopGuard system works as part of an integrated cover assembly that seals the opening against moisture intrusion, reducing maintenance needs and potential service calls in busy spaces. By preventing contaminants from entering the power and data zones, this feature helps sustain performance and reliability in environments prone to dust, cleaning liquids, or high foot traffic. The result is a safer, cleaner install with fewer accessory issues and a longer service life for your floor box solution.
- Fully adjustable box for pre‑ and post‑pour versatility: The Omnibox Single Gang Cast Iron Floor Box is designed for adjustability before and after concrete pour. This means you can fine‑tune depth, alignment, and flush mounting to achieve a precise, finish‑ready appearance without sacrificing accessibility. The ability to adjust after installation is particularly valuable for retrofit projects or updates where floor finishes change or furniture needs shift. With straightforward adjustments, you can ensure that the workspace remains visually seamless while still delivering dependable power and data access. The after‑pour adjustability also supports easy maintenance access and reconfiguration, minimizing downtime for building managers and occupants alike.
- Rugged cast iron construction for lasting performance: The floor box is crafted from cast iron, delivering exceptional strength, impact resistance, and long‑term durability under demanding conditions. This robust construction is ideal for high‑traffic areas and environments where floor boxes may be stepped on, bumped, or subjected to heavy equipment. Cast iron provides a stable, vibration‑resistant enclosure that helps protect sensitive electrical components, connectors, and communication ports from damage. The weight and rigidity of this material contribute to a secure, floor‑level installation that remains steady through years of use, reducing maintenance cycles and replacement costs over time. This is a solution built to endure, even in challenging commercial settings.
- Seamless Omnibox compatibility and modular design: As part of the Omnibox family, this single gang floor box is designed to work with the Omnibox cover assemblies and modular accessories. The architecture supports separate power and data compartments with thoughtful cable management to minimize clutter and maintain a clean floor presentation. The modular approach simplifies upgrades or reconfigurations—whether you’re adding more outlets, data ports, or future communication interfaces—without needing a full hardware replacement. This compatibility ensures a scalable solution that grows with your building’s evolving technology needs while preserving a cohesive, professional installation aesthetic.
- Easy installation with enhanced safety and finish‑quality results: The combination of an adjustable box, strong cast iron body, and TopGuard protection translates into a straightforward installation process with predictable results. Prepour and postpour adjustments enable precise depth alignment and a flush, clean floor presentation. The robust enclosure, coupled with secure mounting and sealed cover assemblies, yields a professional finish that blends with architectural details and floor finishes. This floor box is suited for new builds and renovation projects alike, offering consistent performance and a high‑quality appearance that supports superior occupant experience in commercial spaces.

How to install Wiremold Omnibox Series Single Gang Cast Iron Floor Box
- Plan and locate: Determine the optimal location for floor access to power and data needs. Mark the cutout position on the floor, ensuring alignment with building codes, electrical panels, and data rooms. Verify that the site can accommodate the box depth, cover height, and any local requirements for moisture control and cable routing.
- Prepare the site: If installing before concrete pours, set up the box in the formwork according to the manufacturer’s depth and alignment guidelines. For after‑pour installations, ensure the floor cavity is clean, level, and ready to accept the adjustable box with secure mounting points. Maintain clear access to the power and data compartments for routing cables during installation.
- Install the box and seal: Place the cast iron floor box into the prepared opening and secure it according to the provided mounting hardware. Use any built‑in adjustment features to achieve the desired depth and flush alignment with the finished floor surface. Attach the cover assembly with TopGuard protection to form a moisture‑resistant seal at the surface level, ensuring the gasket seats properly for a tight fit.
- Route power and data components: Feed power conductors and data cables into the appropriate compartments, following local codes and regulations. Maintain clean separation between power and data paths to minimize interference. Use strain relief and cable management features within the box to safeguard connections and reduce wear over time.
- Finish and test: Install the final floor finish and secure any trim or surrounding materials. Verify the box’s flush alignment and confirm that the TopGuard cover seals correctly. Test all outlets and data ports to ensure proper operation and insulation. Confirm that the enclosure remains weather and debris resistant after installation and that the cover is fully engaged for ongoing protection.
