Description
Three rockers sit on one charcoal plate, and the screwless design leaves the face clear of visible fixing heads. The finish is a deep matt grey, dark enough to read as near-black against pale paint and quieter than gloss under downlights, with chrome inserts framing each rocker. The plate is square, slim and sits close to the wall rather than standing proud of it. The rocker action is the familiar up and down, with nothing new to learn. Each gang is two way, so the same lights can also be worked from another switch position in the room.
We would put this where several lighting circuits arrive at the same point: a hallway serving a porch light, a stair light and the landing, or an open plan kitchen running pendants, downlights and a strip under the cupboards. A single plate in that situation is calmer than a row of separate ones, and the rockers give a firm click you can find in the dark. We tend to reach for the darker plates in rooms with deep paint, dark tile or timber, where white plastic jumps out at you. It is one we suggest for hallways and landings more than anywhere else.
The plate is moulded in polycarbonate, a hard-wearing plastic that holds its colour, and the unit is double insulated. It belongs in dry indoor rooms, on household lighting circuits. For cleaning, a dry cloth is usually enough; if fingermarks build up around the rockers, a barely damp cloth will lift them, while polishes and solvents will dull the matt surface. It carries a ten year warranty. Against charcoal walls or a dark splashback it recedes, and the chrome picks up other polished metal already in the room.

Frequently Asked
What size is the plate?
It is 88mm square, with 25mm of depth behind the plate.
What does two way mean on each gang?
Each of the three gangs can work on its own, or be paired with a switch in another location so the same light can be operated from either position.
What load is each switch rated for?
Each gang is rated 10AX, which covers normal domestic lighting circuits.
What is it made from?
The plate is moulded polycarbonate in charcoal with chrome inserts, and the unit is double insulated to Class 2. It weighs 0.1kg.
How should I clean it?
A dry cloth for dust, and a barely damp cloth for fingermarks around the rockers. Keep abrasive creams, polishes and solvents away from the matt surface.
Can it go in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 for dry indoor rooms only, so it should be kept out of splash zones and away from showers and basins.
