Why are low voltage replacement switches and switch plates so hard to find?
Vintage low voltage lighting systems, also known as remote control wiring systems, were considered a high-end luxury feature during the 40s through the 80s and still exist in many mid-century homes and buildings today. Their innovative technology, allowing someone to operate several lights from a single location, as well as their energy efficiency makes them very appealing to modern day homeowners. However, many of these original systems have now become obsolete with limited or no information available. In finding a solution for low voltage customers, Kyle Design has done extensive research on low voltage wiring equipment and currently stocks updated replacement hardware from original low voltage manufacturers like General Electric, Touch-Plate, Remcon and Sierra. Our large selection of low voltage lighting products includes momentary light switches, hard to find wall plates, transformers, remote control relays and mounting brackets that are in stock and ready to ship.
