Hi guys



We are replacing all our white sockets and light switches etc with black nickel ones (please see below link)

I need 2 x 1 gang architrave switches in the same design but I cannot find any. Does anyone know of anywhere who sell these, even if they are not 100% identical.



Many thanks

I am pretty sure that I saw some in B&Q the other day. Quite likely the same make as Screwfix but not sure. (Their web site is still dreadful but might be worth checking.)

Have you checked the maker's website or contacted them? Places like Screwfix often don't carry the full range.

Yes, had a look on the Volex website and cannot see an architrave switch in that design

If it's 2 * 1way switches you can get these on a single architrave unit using a grid system

See MEM part refs

And if anyone knows where to get a switched FCU in the same range with a front cable exit, let me know too 'cos I need one! Reluctant to drill a hole in the front of the one I have!

If the worst comes to the worst, get one of the right shape and switch colour and paint it with Plasti-kote paint - it gives a very good shny finish if you are careful.

You may wish to have a look here, but you may be fresh out of luck.
