Type of works: design and manufacture of Hamilton Litestat's Sheer CFX switch plates, sockets and lighting controls.

One of London’s newest luxury hotels is home to bespoke key card switches that perfectly complement its other electrical wiring accessories after Hamilton Litestat was commissioned to design and manufacture a special adaption from its Sheer CFX range of switch plates, sockets and lighting controls.

The Grange St Paul’s, which is located in the heart of the City’s financial district, is one of the area’s newest five-star hotels in which everything has been designed to elevate guests to new levels of luxury and elegance, down to the smallest detail.

Decorative electrical wiring accessories manufacturer, Hamilton Litestat, supplied its Sheer CFX range of switch plates and sockets throughout all of the hotel’s 400+ rooms; the ultra slim plates and patented concealed fixing system making stylish design statements out of what are often overlooked items within interior schemes. A bright chrome finish was chosen throughout to complement the hotel’s contemporary interior and a specially adapted key card switch, which integrates with a KNX building management system, was designed by Hamilton’s wiring accessories experts in the same chrome finish to meet the hotel’s energy saving specifications whilst blending aesthetically with the other accessories. The card switch also features a Blue LED locator and an adjustable time delay, ranging from 10 seconds to 5 minutes.

“Our Sheer CFX range is one of our slimmest profile designs and has proved popular in very chic, contemporary settings because it sits almost flush to the wall, offering a particularly sleek appearance with no visible fixings,” said Ian Hamilton, Managing Director. “Whilst the range already holds a wide variety of switch plates, sockets and lighting control plates, we are always able to adapt products or design bespoke items from scratch, in order to fulfil specific requirements without losing the overall look and feel of the chosen design.”

This wiring accessories order for the Grange St Paul’s Hotel was supplied through the Islington branch of Senate Electrical Ltd.
