Kontakt-Simon Simon 24 Double Staircase Switch with Backlight, Matte Black

The Kontakt-Simon Simon 24 double staircase switch is a premium electrical control solution designed for seamless lighting management from two distinct locations. This dual-switch unit features a sophisticated matte black finish, making it an ideal choice for contemporary residential and commercial interiors where aesthetics and functionality are equally prioritized. The integrated backlight for each key ensures easy visibility in low-light conditions without the use of distracting pictograms, maintaining a clean and minimalist appearance.

Advantages

This double staircase switch offers exceptional durability and reliable performance, characteristic of the Kontakt-Simon engineering standards. The matte black surface is resistant to fingerprints and minor abrasions, ensuring that the switch maintains its elegant look over time. By allowing control of two separate lighting circuits from two different points, it provides significant convenience for hallways, stairwells, and large rooms. The individual backlighting feature is particularly useful for locating the switch in the dark, while the absence of pictograms allows for a versatile design that fits any room decor.

Suitable for

• Controlling lighting in hallways and corridors from two ends.
• Managing two independent lighting circuits in living rooms or bedrooms.
• Modern interior design projects requiring a matte black finish.
• Residential and commercial spaces where functional lighting control is essential.

When it may not be suitable

This switch is specifically designed for staircase (two-way) control configurations. It is not suitable for standard single-point switching without the necessary wiring infrastructure. Additionally, it may not be compatible with certain types of low-wattage LED lamps if the backlight circuit interferes with the lamp's driver, potentially causing flickering.

Key specifications

• Type: Double staircase switch (two-way).
• Finish: Matte black.
• Backlight: Individual key illumination without pictograms.
• Installation: Flush-mounted.
• Application: Indoor lighting control.

How to use

The switch should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical safety regulations. It is designed for flush mounting into standard wall boxes. Once installed, the two keys operate independently to control their respective lighting circuits. The integrated backlight activates automatically to provide a subtle glow, assisting in locating the switch in dark environments.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your existing electrical wiring supports two-way (staircase) switching.
• Verify that the matte black finish complements your existing wall plates and interior design.
• Check compatibility with your current light sources to prevent potential flickering issues.
• Confirm that the installation depth is sufficient for your wall box.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and safety, always ensure the power supply is disconnected before beginning any installation work. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring, consult a professional to avoid damage to the switch or your lighting system.
