Description
Specifications
Installation
Delivery
Using our components, you can create any combination of switches you need.
This polished nickel retractive rocker switch works with our Kew and Grove switch plates.
It flicks back into the top 'off' position when you let go. You can use it for things like doorbells, kitchen sink disposals, and to dim lights (with one of our in-line dimmer modules).
The small amount of low-sheen plastic around the rocker comes in white.
Polished nickel is our answer to chrome. It’s a bit warmer, which we think is more versatile, so you can use it with warm or cool color palettes.
- Switch made from solid brass
- Mechanism engineered to give a solid, satisfying click
- Compatible with Kew and Grove switch plates
- Must be used with our polished nickel-finished (or clear or paintable) plates
- You’ll need one of our in-line dimmer modules to dim lights

FAQs
How do I install Corston electrical products?
You can view and print instructions from our mobile-friendly support page.
How do I install your Kew clear switches and outlets?
The clear switches and outlets in our Kew collection come with backing paper that you can either paint or use as a wallpaper template.
The transparent front plate is then secured over the backing paper to conceal the electrics.
All our electrical products should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Do I need to use Corston electrical boxes with Corston switches and outlets?
Our Grove collection is designed to be easy to retrofit. The switches and outlets will work with your existing old and new work boxes, but you can also use ours if you’re adding to your setup.
The switches and outlets in our Kew collection only work with new work boxes that are recessed into the wall. You can use our new work boxes for this, but if a different new work box is already recessed into the wall, that’s fine to use too.
Can I create a custom switch arrangement?
Yes, we sell the individual components for our Kew and Grove collections. For help with creating your own combinations, just give us a call at (332) 895-1718 or email hi@corston.us.
How do your retractive switches work?
A retractive switch flicks back into the top ""off"" position when you let go. A center retractive switch flicks back to the center ""off"" position when you let go. It can be pressed up or down to make two separate connections. When used with one of our in-line dimmer modules, a short press will turn the light on and off. A press and hold will dim and brighten the light.
* Both versions must be used with one in-line dimmer module per circuit.
When should I use a four-way switch?
Four-way switches need to be used when three or more switches are required to control the same light. Three-way switches are used at the start and end of the circuit, and one or more four-way switches are added to the middle of the circuit.
Can I have more than one three-way dimmer controlling the same circuit?
Multiple three-way dimmer modules can't be used to control the same light. However, a three-way dimmer can be combined with three-way or four-way switches to control the light from multiple locations.
Retractive and center retractive toggles/rockers can be used for a multiple point dimming circuit when used with an in-line dimmer module (one per circuit).
Alternatively, our multiway dimmer module can be used to dim and turn lights on/off from multiple locations on one circuit.
How do I stop my dimmers from flickering?
All our dimmers have been engineered with anti-flicker technology. If flickering is something you're experiencing, please follow our mode setting instructions here.
