A beautiful 1 gang dolly switch hand forged from solid natural brass, with a hammered edge and lightly antiqued for an elegant, aged look that will add a touch of contemporary style to any room in your home. Our dolly (toggle) switch plates are all made with a slimline brass or steel backplate that sits flush against the wall, with either a straight bevelled edge for a sleek, modern look to your home, or an uneven, hammered edge for a more rustic feel.
Each switch is 20amp, 2 way which means it can be used for switching lights from either one or two places such as from the top and bottom or your stairs. If you need to switch the light on from more than 2 positions (e.g. middle of the stairs) you will need an intermediate module which can be added for a small additional cost upon request. All
Jim Lawrence products are made using traditional metal working techniques and are hand finished to the very highest standards here at our Suffolk workshop.
Kindly note: Please ensure paint & plaster is completely dry before fitting brass switches and sockets to a wall. Our switches are designed to sit flush against the wall so any residual moisture might tarnish the finish. PRODUCT INFORMATION

FINISH
Antiqued Brass: A beautiful, natural finish produced by gently distressing the brass to create a soft patina that is then treated with antiquing solution to speed up the natural tarnishing process and create a lovely aged look that will darken naturally over time. Antiqued Brass is an incredibly versatile finish that works well with any colourway and natural building materials such as brick, stone, plaster or woodwork and looks equally at home in a modern property as it does a period one.
FAQS
ARE THEY COMPATIBLE WITH SMART BULBS?
Yes our switches and can be used with smart bulbs. Just leave them switched on so the bulbs can be controlled remotelyvia the internet and wifi. WILL THEY WORK IN THE USA?
No, the USA uses a different electrical current with a much lower voltage than the UK so our switches will not work.
We can make many of our lights suitable for United States domestic applications, but they are not, as standard, UL approved for use in commercial and public installations.
For more information, see our guide - Overseas Customers FAQ > WHAT IS AN INTERMEDIATE?
An intermediate switch allows you to operate your lights from three locations, so from a landing as well as from the top and bottom of the stairs, or from either side of the bed as well as by the door in a bedroom. Intermediate switches are ideal for rooms where there are multiple entrances.
