Why We Love Dimmer Switches, Controls & Outlets

There's more to lighting--and to life--than simply on and off, black or white. Light dimmers and light switches offer flexibility in that area in-between, giving you just the right level of brightness as dictated by a given situation or desired mood. Use the power of light to create an air of romance, relaxation or welcoming energy. With the same set of lights, lighting controls can give you full brightness for a cocktail party one night, and then turn them down for glare-free TV viewing the next. Accessorize and modernize your lighting with this selection of light switches, dimming controls, wall plates and outlets.

Where Light Switch Dimmers Work Best

Every room of the home benefits from the stylish appearance of a contemporary light switch or dimmer switch. In living rooms, where a number of different activities can take place that require different lighting levels, light switch dimming controls are essential. They also work well in bedroom lighting systems (dining room lighting, too)—by lowering the light level to set an intimate, romantic mood. Wherever you need a little mood lighting, look to the help of a dimming switch. Simply having the option to control the output of your ceiling lights, recessed lighting or even portable lamps will make a very noticeable difference in any room. And you can't forget to pair your light switch or dimmer control with a matching wall plate and outlet cover. Available in a variety of materials, textures and color finishes, a good-looking wall plate and outlet complements your lighting and rounds out the overall design of your home.

Dimmer Light Switches & Outlet Covers for Every Style

How to Choose the Best Dimmers, Switches & Outlets

Depending on the style and age of your house, you may have a few different options of light switch sizes and accessories to choose from. The design-friendly Adorne Collection from Legrand is offered in a number of sizes that will simply replace your existing switches (don't forget to choose the right size wall plate and outlet too). If you have an existing switch that accommodates multiple lighting controls or even a source of power, there are plenty of 2-gang, 3-gang and 4-gang options here to look through. Finally, in the bathroom, kitchen or other locations where water is bound to be present, be sure to check out the assortment of GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) switches and power outlets that can help prevent the occurrence of electrical shock.

Other Considerations

In order to find a modern light dimmer compatible with your system, keep in mind that dimmers generally control fixtures with either incandescent/halogen or LED lamping. They are further specialized into standard line voltage or low voltage. Low voltage dimmers are especially useful in controlling low voltage flexible track lighting and recessed lighting, while LED dimmers are able to stably and smoothly dim the latest LED light fixtures. You can find certain types of dimmers and light switches to work with your outdoor lighting as well. Finally, for optimal kitchen task lighting, use dimmer controls with your under cabinet lights.
