Description
Four rocker switches sit side by side on a single screwless plate, finished in a soft strawberry tone with chrome rockers set into it. No fixing screws show on the face, which gives the plate a clean edge and an uninterrupted front. Each rocker is two way, so it can work on its own or answer a second switch elsewhere in the same space. The plate sits a little under 15cm across, which gathers a set of circuits onto one point rather than spreading them along the wall.
We reach for a plate like this where a good number of lighting circuits land at one door: a hall serving the landing, porch and stair lights, or a kitchen running pendants, under-cupboard strips and a dining light. The two way action earns its keep on stairs and in long corridors, where the same lights need answering from either end. The rockers give a familiar click and hold a clear up or down position, which helps when the switch is found in the dark. Indoor domestic lighting circuits are its home, so hallways, bedrooms and living rooms, not a bathroom zone or a garage.
Plate and rockers are moulded polycarbonate, and the fitting is double insulated in use. Wipe the face with a barely damp cloth and dry it off; cream cleaners, solvents and kitchen sprays will dull the colour, so keep them well away. It carries a ten year warranty. The chrome rockers lift the strawberry finish and stop it reading flat, and we find it works best used sparingly: one bold plate at the busiest door, with quieter plates elsewhere on the circuits that need less attention.

Frequently Asked
What are the plate dimensions?
The plate measures 146mm wide by 88mm high, with a depth of 25mm behind the face.
What is the switch made from?
The plate and rockers are moulded polycarbonate, with the rockers in a chrome finish against the strawberry plate.
What does two way mean here?
Each of the four rockers can be paired with another switch controlling the same light, so either position turns it on or off. Used singly, it simply works as a standard on/off switch.
What is it rated at?
It is a 10AX rocker switch for domestic lighting circuits, double insulated and rated IP20 for indoor use.
How should I clean it?
A barely damp cloth followed by a dry one is enough. Avoid solvents, cream cleaners and household sprays, which can mark or dull the moulded finish.
Is there a warranty?
It carries a ten year warranty.
