Light Switches

Light switches are electrical devices that control the electricity flow or power to a light fixture or lamps, turning them on or off. These switches are typically mounted on walls in residential, commercial, and industrial settings, offering convenience, energy efficiency, and decor functionality. A light switch is a necessity in indoor rooms with different colours and finishes, adding a pop of contrast. Light switches also come as decorative light switches that add a touch of aesthetics with intricate designs, textures, or even custom artwork. Additionally, these switches provide easy installation, operation and robust compatibility with existing wiring systems and fixtures.
