ABSTRACT:
A securable wallplate system couples a wallplate with a wall without need for additional attachment hardware. The wallplate system includes arm members pivotally coupled with a wallplate. For each arm member, the wallplate can include a guide member that allows the arm member to pivotally rotate from a retracted angular orientation during installation of the wallplate system to an extended angular orientation during final engagement with an interior side of the wall. In final position, the arm members engage with the interior side of the room wall while the wallplate engages with an exterior side of the room wall and covers an opening in the wall.
