Light Switches

Light switches are where a room's wiring meets daily use, so we keep a full spread of them. From one-gang to multi-gang plate switches, push-button dimmers, toggle switches and heavy-duty cooker and appliance switches, we cover every finish and amperage. Whether you're matching existing sockets or planning a rewire, you'll find the switching you need for lighting and beyond.

Light switches for the whole home

A light switch is touched more than almost anything else on the wall, so ours pair a solid mechanism with a finish that suits the room. We stock one-gang to multi-gang plate switches for standard lighting, two-way switches for stairs and long hallways, and push-button and rotary dimmers for setting the mood. Toggle and pull-cord switches, key switches and heavy-duty cooker and appliance switches round out the range.

Choosing the right switch

Work out how many gangs you need and which way the circuit is switched: one-way for a single position, two-way where a light is controlled from two points. For dimmable lighting, check the dimmer is rated for LED loads and note the minimum and maximum wattage. Cooker and shower circuits need a higher-rated switch, typically 45A double pole, while bathrooms often call for a ceiling pull-cord.

Finishes and plates

Choose from brushed brass, polished chrome, antique brass, matt black and white moulded ranges, in flat-plate and screwless mounting. Every product lists its amperage, gang count and plate style, so switches sit neatly alongside your sockets in a matching finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a one-way and two-way switch?
A one-way switch controls a light from a single point. A two-way switch lets you control the same light from two places, such as the top and bottom of a staircase. Most plate switches can be wired either way.

Will a dimmer switch work with LED bulbs?
Only if the dimmer is marked as LED-compatible and the bulbs are dimmable. Check the dimmer's minimum and maximum wattage against the total load of your bulbs, as LEDs draw very little power.

What switch do I need for a cooker or shower?
Fixed high-power appliances such as cookers and electric showers need a double pole switch rated for the circuit, usually 45A. These isolate both live and neutral for safe switching.

What are pull-cord switches for?
Pull-cord switches operate by a hanging cord rather than a wall rocker, which keeps them away from wet hands. They are the standard choice for bathrooms and en-suites where a wall switch is not permitted in certain zones.

Can I match my switches to my sockets?
Yes. Pick the same finish and plate style, such as screwless matt black or flat-plate brushed brass, and your light switches will match your sockets across the room.
