Bryant 20406 Aluminum Receptacle Wallplate Without Cover
The Bryant 20406 is an aluminum receptacle plate designed to be installed without a separate hinged cover, providing a clean, low-profile finish over a device box opening. Built from durable aluminum, this wallplate resists corrosion and holds up well across a range of electrical installation environments, both indoor and general-purpose applications. Bryant engineers this receptacle plate for straightforward mounting to standard device boxes, making it a practical choice for electrical contractors, facility maintenance teams, and installers who need a dependable, no-frills device plate solution that pairs with a separately supplied cover configuration when required. As a no-cover receptacle plate, the 20406 is well suited to installations where an open-face mounting plate is the preferred configuration rather than a plate with an integrated hinged door.
Key Features
- Aluminum Construction: Fabricated from aluminum for corrosion resistance and long-term durability in everyday electrical environments.
- No-Cover Design: Configured without an attached hinged cover, allowing installation where an open-face or accessory-cover configuration is preferred.

Bryant 20406 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Bryant 20406 receptacle plate come with a hinged cover?
No. The Bryant 20406 is the no-cover configuration, meaning it ships as an open-face receptacle plate with no attached hinged door. If your install needs a lift-lid or flip cover over the receptacle, you need to specify that cover separately, or choose a plate that has the cover built in.
2) Will the Bryant 20406 mount to a standard electrical device box?
Yes, the 20406 is built for direct attachment to standard device boxes, so it works for both new installs and swapping out a damaged plate during maintenance work. It sits flush to the mounting surface around the device opening.
3) I need an aluminum-look plate but the box has no device in it. What should I order instead of the Bryant 20406?
For a blanked-off box, the Pass and Seymour WPB series blank wallplate in brushed aluminum is the plate to use - it has no device opening at all. The Bryant 20406 is a receptacle plate, meaning it is cut to finish around a receptacle in the device box, so it will not close off an empty box.
4) Which wallplates look like substitutes for the Bryant 20406 but will not fit a receptacle?
Several plates in the same family are cut for other devices. The Mulberry 41020 is a 1-gang toggle switch plate in the 4102 series, marked gas burner red, and the Pass and Seymour SPJ series is a junior-jumbo thermoset plate with a toggle switch opening - both take a toggle switch, not a receptacle. The Eaton 35324W carries a 4-conductor data/voice modular jack of Type 625B4 and the Eaton 3533-4W is a surface mount telephone jack wallplate in white thermoplastic for RJ11/RJ14, which are communications devices. The Bryant 20406 is a receptacle plate.
5) What should I use instead of the Bryant 20406 when the box holds a receptacle and a switch together?
For a mixed switch-and-receptacle box, use a combination plate: the Mulberry 76432 and Mulberry 76532 are cold rolled steel 2-gang combination wallplates in white from the 764 and 765 series, the Cooper Wiring Devices 2138WBOX is a 21 Series thermoset combination wallplate in white, and the Pass and Seymour TP126-LA is a two-gang combination nylon plate. The Bryant 20406 is cut as a receptacle plate only.
6) Is the Bryant 20406 plate metal or plastic?
Aluminum. That is the practical difference between the 20406 and the thermoset or nylon plates electricians often grab off the shelf: the metal plate resists corrosion and takes abuse in service corridors, mechanical rooms and shop areas better than a plastic face. If you want a non-metallic plate instead, a thermoset option like the Pass and Seymour SPJ Series or a nylon TradeMaster plate is the other direction.
7) What is the Bryant part number to order this aluminum receptacle plate?
Order it as Bryant 20406. That is the manufacturer part number and the only model on the line, so there are no finish or gang options to pick between when you order.
8) Can I use the Bryant 20406 aluminum plate for an outdoor receptacle?
Treat the 20406 as an indoor and general-purpose plate. The aluminum body gives it corrosion resistance, but with no cover attached the receptacle face is left open, so it is not a weather-protective assembly on its own. Wet or damp location work needs a plate with an appropriate cover configuration.
9) Is there an aluminum wallplate option for a multi-gang or combination opening instead of a single receptacle?
The Bryant 20406 covers a single receptacle device opening. For multi-gang work, the metal alternatives we carry are steel rather than aluminum: the Mulberry 76432 and 76532 are 2-gang combination plates in cold rolled steel, and the Mulberry 76103 is a 3-gang, 3-duplex plate in steel. Those are the ones to spec when the box is ganged.
10) What is the closest metal alternative to the Bryant 20406 aluminum receptacle plate if a steel plate is acceptable?
If the requirement is a metal receptacle plate rather than specifically aluminum, the Mulberry 76103 is a steel Princess size 3-gang wallplate with three duplex receptacle openings in white, and the Mulberry 76432 is a cold rolled steel 2-gang combination wallplate in the 764 series, also white. Both are painted steel with defined gang counts and openings, where the Bryant 20406 is an aluminum receptacle plate supplied in a no-cover configuration.
11) Can I use a Pass and Seymour TradeMaster plate in place of the Bryant 20406?
They serve different openings. The Pass and Seymour TP703LA is a TradeMaster 2-gang nylon wall plate in light almond, and the TP126-LA is a Trademaster two-gang combination nylon wallplate - both are two-gang nylon plates in light almond. The Bryant 20406 is a single aluminum receptacle plate in a no-cover configuration, so it is a match only where a metal single-device plate is wanted, not a two-gang plastic one.
12) For a facility standardizing outlet plates across a building, what makes the Bryant 20406 different from a white plastic plate?
Two things decide it. The 20406 is aluminum, so the finish is bare metal rather than a colored face, and it is the no-cover version, so every opening gets the same open-face look. If your building standard is white, the comparable plastic and steel plates we carry, such as the Mulberry Princess 76103 in white or the Cooper 21 Series thermoset combination plate, hold that color match instead.
