Extension Leads
Glancing around your living room, you admire your thoughtfully considered layout. Everything is perfectly positioned, from the location of the sofa and armchair to the angle of the TV. There’s just one problem: the plug socket is on the other side of the room.

With a range of eye-catching styles to explore, discover the perfect extension leads for your home in our sockets and switches collection.
Power your home with stylish fabric extension cables
Whether you’re curating a dedicated workspace or finding a spot for your new decorative floor lamp, a lack of outlets in your home can really restrict your creativity. Plus, it’s not all that practical, especially when you have multiple devices that all need plugging in at once.
That’s where extension leads come in handy, doubling the capability of your plug sockets. The wider reach allows you to design your interior exactly how you want, while the increased number of sockets gives you the freedom to connect all your devices and lighting without compromise.
Plug socket extensions for when you need extra length
Our double extension leads connect your hard-to-reach sockets with the rest of the room. Trail them by your desk or extend your corner double socket without disrupting the flow of your space. The high-quality Italian fabric won’t go unnoticed either, complete with a tactile, woven finish that adds a hint of luxury.
Whatever your setup, your electric extension leads will soon become an integral part of your décor.
Our extension leads are available in different lengths, with 2m and 5m options available. Knowing which lead length to go for can be tricky, so here are a few tips:
- Get your tape measure out – if in doubt, check the distance between your nearest socket and the spot where you’ll be using your device or appliance.
- Think about how much flexibility you need – if you tend to move your devices around, you’ll likely require a longer lead.
- Consider the size of the room – in larger spaces, you may need a longer extension lead to reach different areas without straining the cord.

A range of cord shades for a range of interiors
There’s nothing worse than a bulky plastic extension lead jarring with the sophisticated palette and finer details of your room. It’s even more obvious in smaller spaces, where the single socket just isn’t enough and an extension cable is a necessity.
The best extension leads are reliable to use and appealing to look at. A more subtle silhouette, fabric coating, and premium colour range can drastically elevate this home essential – our extension leads are designed to be displayed.
There are the colourful leads in fresh pastel shades such as mint green and bubblegum pink, great for brightening your home and adding a touch of personality. Complete the look with accessories in similar vibrant shades – a throw draped over the corner of the bed or a contemporary art piece that ties in perfectly.
Alternatively, black, grey, and linen extension leads have a timeless quality that blends seamlessly into any space – they’re still intriguing to the eye whilst creating a sense of calm and flow throughout.
Style note: For an effortlessly coordinated space, pair your extension leads with complementary light switches and quality hardware.
Extension lead FAQs
Do extension leads use electricity when not in use?
Once plugged into an outlet, extension leads will use a small amount of electricity – even when not actively powering a device. This is often referred to as ‘standby power’.
Although the energy wastage is typically very low, you can improve your overall consumption by unplugging the lead when it’s not being used. Our extension leads are compact, so you can tuck them away in a drawer or cabinet until needed again.
Are extension leads safe?
Extension leads are perfectly safe as long as they’re not misused or overloaded. You should only ever plug your extension leads directly into the wall socket – avoid adding further extensions to an extension cable, as this could cause a power outage or fire.
Extension cables could also pose a trip hazard, so make sure to position them away from areas that get lots of foot traffic and don’t let the cable get tangled or overstretched.
Why choose fabric-covered extension leads over plastic?
- Our fabric extension leads are more than just extra plugs. They’re decorative items with a unique appeal
- Fabric is more flexible than plastic or rubber, allowing you to manoeuvre the lead around tight corners and position it exactly how you want
- The fabric coating provides an extra layer of protection and is less prone to cracking or splitting.
Fabric extension leads bring a warmer touch to the space, for cosy nights complete with ambient lighting and bundles of blankets
