{"product_id":"2-gang-2-way-light-switch-dark-brown","title":"2 Gang 2 Way Light Switch - Dark Brown","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eDark brown is a rare find in switchgear, and it earns its keep in rooms where a white plate would jump out at you. The front is screwless, so it reads as one flat panel with no visible fixings, and the rockers sit in a chrome insert that picks up a little light. Both gangs are two way, meaning each can be paired with another switch elsewhere so the same lighting is controlled from either point. The action is a plain rocker: firm, quiet and easy to find in the dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHallways, landings and staircases are the obvious homes for it, where a switch at the foot of the stairs and its partner at the top save a walk in the dark. It works just as well in a bedroom, with a plate by the door answered by one at the bedside, and in a sitting room where two circuits, say the ceiling light and the wall lights, want separate control from the same spot. We would choose this over white where the woodwork is dark, the walls are deep in colour, or brass and bronze fittings set the tone; it settles into a panelled or timber-framed wall in a way pale plastic never does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate and rockers are moulded polycarbonate, double insulated, with a compact square footprint that sits tidily beside a door architrave. It belongs indoors, on household lighting circuits. Wipe the plate with a dry cloth when you dust the room, and keep cream cleaners, solvents and abrasive pads away from it, as they will haze the moulding and dull the chrome. It carries a ten year warranty. Run the same dark brown plates through a hallway for consistency, and keep chrome or nickel accessories in the same rooms so the insert has something to answer to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark Brown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecond Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.07KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate, Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax.
