Full Product Description

Modern Lighting Control for Home Renovations

The SONLEX Light Switch Panel provides reliable, tactile control for your everyday lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. By offering both 2-Gang and 3-Gang variant options, this wall panel allows you to consolidate the control of multiple lighting zones (such as living room spotlights, main ceiling lights, and dining pendants) into one centralized location. The robust rocker mechanism ensures a satisfying click with every press, guaranteeing long-term durability for high-traffic households and busy office environments.

2-Way Switching Capability

Each individual rocker on this 86x86mm Wall Switch is equipped with three rear terminals, allowing it to function seamlessly as either a standard 1-way or an advanced 2-way switch. This 2-way functionality is essential for modern hallway and staircase lighting designs, as it allows you to control a single light fixture from two different switch locations. Whether you are wiring a simple bedroom light or a complex multi-point corridor system, this panel provides the exact electrical routing flexibility you need.

Clean Aesthetic with Hidden Screws

The SONLEX Switch Faceplate includes custom-fit decorative plastic strips designed to completely conceal the metal mounting screws after installation. Once you have secured the panel to your wall box, you simply snap these strips onto the top and bottom edges to create a smooth, uninterrupted white surface. This screwless appearance elevates the overall look of your interior design, blending perfectly with freshly painted walls and modern minimalist decor.

Pro Tip from Our Technicians

Always turn off the main mains power at your breaker box before attempting to replace or install this SONLEX Light Switch Panel. Our Sham Shui Po technical team advises that because the rear terminal block has a depth of 30mm, you must ensure your wall's back box (pattress box) has a minimum depth of 25mm to 35mm to comfortably accommodate the wiring without crushing the copper cores. If you are unsure how to wire a 2-way lighting circuit, we highly recommend consulting a licensed electrician to ensure your home remains safe and compliant with local regulations.
