Question:
Hello. I have a question regarding a product you are selling. I have the following type of wall outlet:
GFCI with switchplate
We currently have a cover that has a mirror finish and I noticed that you have something that looks similar:
Mirrored Glass Rocker Switchplate
Is the cover you sell for a rocker switch or for the type of outlet I have? Or does it work for both? The thing I am wondering is if it’s an industry standard for the opening fitting both a rocker switch and a GFCI outlet. I just don’t want to order something to find out I ordered the wrong thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Answer:
Hi, this is actually a fairly common question. To get right to the point yes they are one and the same.
There are several names for the configuration that we call Rocker on the Habitatter.com website: GFCI, Décor, and vertical dimmer, for example. Regardless of what you call them they are the most versatile of switchplates. They can be used with a multitude of inserts such as volume control knobs, modern phone inserts, TV inputs (HDMI, RCA, Cable, S-Video, etc.), dimmer sliders, as well as GFCI applications as shown below.
HDMI Insert
S-Video Insert
Dimmer Insert
Speaker Switch
Volume Control
