The light switch
The light switch - it is used every day and yet receives little attention. It is usually only seen as a necessary, functional detail. With these "old" light switches, you can make switching on a conscious daily activity again. The light switches with their soft shapes also serve as stylish design objects for the wall. Whether rotary switches or rocker switches - this is ultimately a question of personal preference.

Mechanical inner workings
The rotary and rocker switches as well as the push-buttons have a solid ceramic body.The spring mechanism of the rotary switch consists of 42 individual parts and is the result of mechanical precision work: regardless of the speed of the rotary movement, a uniform switch contact is guaranteed, which is closed with a light, familiar click - the switch mechanism thus prevents the arcing effect that threatens to impair the switching contacts in the long term, even with alternating current. To ensure a safe switching process, the snap-action mechanism is also galvanised.
All switches and sockets in this series are manufactured in Germany.
Switch variants and push-buttons
The rotary switches are available with four different functionalities:- Two-way-switch - if you want to switch a light source from one or two positions
- Intermediate switch - if you want to switch a light source from a third position
- Series switch - if you want to switch two light sources from one switch
- Jalousie switch
- The toggle or rocker switches are available in two versions as a two-way-switch or two-way-switch. rocker pushbuttons are available in two designs as toggle or intermediate switches.
Rocker pushbuttons are generally used when operation is required from at least 3 points. In contrast to the intermediate switch, this installation requires a impulse switch (relay), but the wiring and design of the light switches is simpler. A staircase light timer (time relay) can also be used instead of the impulse relay.VDE certification
All switches and sockets are VDE tested and fulfil the strictest safety regulations.

Installation instructions
All flush-mounted switch systems naturally fit into commercially available, standardised flush-mounted boxes (e.g. from Kaiser).
We would like to point out that all installation work on electrical installations must be carried out by a specialist. We accept no liability for damage caused by improper mounting. Cleaning and care
The switches are resistant to heavy wear and tear (e.g. scratches). They are easy to clean with standard household cleaning agentsInstallation instructions for glass frames
The glass covers are supplied with templates made of white cardboard, which can be inserted directly underneath the glass covers for a perfect fit. The cardboard covers can be covered with wallpaper or painted in the desired wall colour. After any removal of the switches (e.g. for technical testing), they ensure that the original uniform appearance with the wall is maintained.
