{"product_id":"10ax-2-gang-2-way-switch-black-nickel-screwless","title":"10AX 2 Gang 2-Way Switch - Black Nickel Screwless","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Knightsbridge 10AX 2-gang 2-way switch controls two independent lighting circuits from multiple locations, with each rocker rated at 10 amps (2,300W on 230V mains). The screwless faceplate in black nickel finish clips onto a separate metal sub-frame, hiding all fixing screws once installed. Both rockers are metal-finished to match the plate rather than white plastic, giving a unified appearance across the entire switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for hallways, staircases and rooms with two entry points, the 2-way configuration allows lights to be controlled from either end of a corridor or at the top and bottom of stairs. The 10AX rating handles standard domestic lighting loads including LED, halogen and incandescent circuits. The switch fits a standard single-gang back box with a minimum 16mm depth and projects just 4.3mm from the wall once the screwless plate is clipped on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black nickel finish sits darker than polished chrome or brushed steel, presenting as a deep gunmetal grey with subtle warmth. The premium-grade steel construction includes a built-in gasket behind the faceplate, providing IP20 ingress protection and adding a degree of moisture resistance suitable for most residential interiors. The switch is certified to EN 60669-1 and carries a 25-year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e87.5 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.3 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.2 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.
