Painted Range Toggle Switches by Forbes & Lomax
Description
The Painted Range by Forbes & Lomax provides primed, ready-to-paint plates that sit flush to the wall. Each plate can be painted onsite to match the wall colour for a subtle, unobtrusive look, while the switch mechanism is supplied in the finish of your choice.
Painted toggle switches are line-voltage switches based on the elegant nickel and brass switches of the 1930s. Available in 3-way and 4-way versions (3-way can also be used as single pole). Can be mixed with Rotary Dimmers and push buttons on the same plate. 1–4 gang configurations.
Established in 1987, Forbes & Lomax is a UK-based heritage electrical brand recognized by architects and designers for refined switch and outlet design.
