Toggle Switches by Forbes & Lomax

Forbes & Lomax’s Toggle Switches are based on the elegant nickel and brass light switches of the 1930s. These simple, timeless switches are a refined detail in any interior.

Toggle Switches are rated at 15 amps and come in 3-way and 4-way versions. 3-way switches can also be used as single pole switches. Toggle Switches can be mixed with Rotary Dimmers and push buttons on the same plate. Contact us for custom configurations.

Established in 1987, Forbes & Lomax is a UK based company with a reputation for high quality design amongst architects and designers.

• Toggle Switches install into standard junction boxes but the boxes must be recessed below the finished wall surface by at least 1/8". Please refer to the Wallbox Assemble Diagram in the Installation Guide below. If you are installing into existing junction boxes, you will probably find the boxes are already recessed by at least this much but please check to make sure before placing an order.

Unlacquered Brass and Aged Brass are living finishes that change colour over time. Unlacquered Brass has a high-shine, polished look, while Aged Brass is treated to age faster. Brushed Brass is a non-living finish and will not change colour.

Note: materials will slowly age or oxidize over time. Wipe clean with a dry, non-abrasive microfiber cloth. Avoid use of chemical or alcohol based cleaners. Refer to the care guide below for best practices.
