How can Trendi sockets and switches elevate the visuals of your home? You may not think much about your current switches and sockets. However, paying extra attention to these details can further improve the aesthetics of your interior! How so? Well, it brings elegance and luxury without going overboard.

Are Trendi Switches any good?

Trendi switches have a dual plate system that allows you to swap faceplates and create a screwless look. This is perfect if you want a coloured light switch or socket that you can easily interchange! The first plate is the one you install into the wall as usual, and the second plate is the interchangeable part. So, every time you fancy swapping the colour of your Trendi sockets or switches, you can buy a new colour, remove the top part (second plate) and attach the new one. Easy peasy!

Does a Trendi Switch fit a standard back box, and how deep should it be?

Yes, Trendi light switches and sockets can be installed in a standard back box, but a 25mm back box is ideal for a comfortable fit. As for the depth, it requires 16mm. However, the bigger the space around, the better the airflow which promotes cooling.

Since it’s suitable for standard back boxes, you don’t need to reconfigure your existing lighting switch and sockets to try a Trendi. Also, they go well with various design schemes, so you don’t need to worry about them looking completely out of place!

What colour sockets are best?

With the different colours Trendi sockets and switches offer, it may pop into your mind; which colour should you choose? How will you determine the best one for your space? Typically, matching the faceplate colour with your wall colour can give you a cleaner and more uniform look. However, there are interior designs that advocate contrasting the colour of the faceplate with the dominant colour of your space.

If you’re unsure what to do, it’s better to start with a switch and socket that matches your wall colour. After living in the space for a while and you have already identified and settled for a specific look, that’s when you upgrade the colour of your Trendi sockets and switches!

Anyway, as mentioned above, Trendi switches and sockets have a dual plate system, so it is easy to interchange them without completely removing the entire light switch or socket system!

You would not have to go back to square one whenever you feel the need to swap out your current faceplate, making it an excellent fit for homeowners who love doing makeovers and those who constantly update their designs whenever they feel inspired!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dual plate system on Trendi switches and sockets?

Trendi switches feature an innovative dual plate system where the first plate installs into the wall as normal, and the second plate is the interchangeable faceplate that clips on top.

Do Trendi switches fit standard UK back boxes?

Yes, Trendi switches and sockets are designed to fit standard UK back boxes. They require a 25mm back box for optimal fit and need 16mm depth clearance. The larger the space around the switch, the better the airflow for cooling, but standard installations work perfectly fine.

What colours should I choose for my Trendi switches and sockets?

For a clean, uniform look, match your faceplate colour to your wall colour. Alternatively, contrasting colours can create a striking design statement. If you're unsure, start with wall-matching colours and upgrade later using the dual plate system, which makes colour changes simple without rewiring.
