The Knightsbridge 10AX 2-gang 2-way plate switch features a brushed chrome metal faceplate with matching metal rockers, fixed directly to the wall with visible screws at the top and bottom corners. The 10AX rating handles lighting loads up to 2,300W per gang, making it suitable for multi-bulb ceiling lights, chandeliers and high-wattage halogen downlight circuits.
Designed for 2-way lighting control, the switch allows a single light fitting or circuit to be controlled from two different locations — typical applications include rooms with two entry points, staircases lit from top and bottom landings, and long hallways where switching at both ends is needed. The square edge plate sits flush to the wall with a defined 90-degree perimeter, giving a modern profile that pairs with contemporary flat-panel doors, handleless kitchens and minimalist interiors.
The brushed chrome finish is applied to premium-grade steel, with a directional grain running horizontally across the plate surface. This gives a softer metallic sheen than polished chrome and helps hide fingerprints and minor surface marks during everyday use. The built-in gasket between the plate and the wall box provides an IP20 rating, sufficient for dry indoor locations including living rooms, bedrooms, offices and commercial interiors. Installation requires a minimum 16mm back box depth, compatible with standard UK single and dual-gang back boxes.

What does 2-way switching mean?
2-way switching allows a single light or circuit to be controlled from two separate locations. This requires a 2-way switch at each location, wired with 3-core cable between them. Common applications include staircases, long hallways and rooms with two entry points.
What's the difference between 10AX and 10A rating?
10AX indicates a 10-amp rating with extra safety features, certified to EN 60669-1 standards. This rating is suitable for inductive loads such as transformers and fluorescent ballasts, not just resistive loads. The switch handles up to 2,300W per gang on 230V circuits.
Is this a screwless plate?
No. This is a standard screw-fixed plate switch with visible screws at the top and bottom corners. For a screwless version in the same finish, search for Knightsbridge screwless range products at Niori.
What other finishes are available in this range?
Knightsbridge produces this square edge plate switch style in multiple finishes including polished chrome, brushed steel, matt black, white, antique brass and polished brass. Use the site search or filters to find other finishes in stock.
