I have an old blanked off double socket box that I'd like to fit an

metal box so is pretty much immovable without destroying things
somewhat.


MK Grid Switch range?

No mention of an FCU module in that link and some of the
inserts say "requires a 25mm backbox".


They do a fuseholder and a flex outlet as individual modules - as well
as double pole switch and neon modules if you ever need those.

However, there is another option, you could use a normal FCU and a two
gang to one gang adapter plate.

That was the first one that I found. I am sure that there are others and
some may be cheaper.

Alternatively, for a better look, how about a flat, metal, blanking
plate, that you can cut a hole in, paint the colour of the wall and
screw an FCU to?
