Steampunk Light Switch Cover with Wood Handle & Cutouts /Lever/ Gear/ Steel/ Functional Metal Art/ Industrial Home Decor/ Father's Day Gift

This version of my steampunk light switch cover is better than ever, with center cutouts and a wooden handle! Just flip the wooden handle to turn your lights on and off. Because it is made from 1/4 inch raw steel, it has an authentic Industrial look. It is also extremely easy to install. Simply unscrew your existing light switch cover, and screw this one in its place. Screws are included.

The darker handles in the pictures have been stained, but your order will come in a natural wood (pine) color. It is easy to stain whatever color you'd like.

My lever system has a bolt and nut design that allows you to adjust the amount of torque needed to flip the lights on and off. Your purchase comes with a small, matching wrench to help you adjust the bolts. It also comes with a steel spacer plate that ensures a tight seal against the wall and also prevents wobbling and unsightly gaps.

Base plate measures 4 ¾ inches tall by 2 ¾ inches wide. Levers extend 4 ¾ inches from the wall.

When installing, a good option is to turn your existing toggle switch upside down so that the up/down, on/off action of the levers is not reversed.

This design is only compatible with toggle switches (the kind you flick up and down with your finger). If you have a different style of light switch, and you want to convert to the compatible toggle style, please let me know and I will include a 15A-120V toggle switch with your order at no extra charge.

I am no longer offering the rusted version of my light switch covers. However, I am still offering the rusted version on duplex outlet covers, rocker covers and blanks. If you prefer the rusted look, I am offering an "un-oiled" version of my light switch covers. Instead of oiling them with WD40 to prevent rusting, I clean them and then leave them un-oiled. You can then create your own rusting solution. I recommend 16oz hydrogen peroxide, 2oz white vinegar, and ½ tablespoon of salt. Mix this solution in a spray bottle, shake it up so that everything mixes well, and then spray your light switch cover. You will probably need to give it two coats and then let it sit for a couple of days so the rusting really sets in. Then, use clear matte spray paint to set the rust and keep it from transferring to your hands. Alternatively, you can purchase a sprayable rust patina from www.steelfxpatinas.com. Just spray your light switch cover and wait a few days. ***PLEASE INCLUDE A NOTE WITH YOUR ORDER IF YOU PREFER THE UN-OILED VERSION!***
