Faceplates provide the finished cover around a lighting keypad, dimmer, or switch, while decorative wall plates cover electrical or low-voltage openings and help create a clean appearance. Mounting adapters secure compatible lighting devices within drywall or solid-surface walls for a flush installation, with access for insertion, removal, or maintenance.

For new construction, choose a 1-gang mount designed for the wall material, such as half-inch drywall, while solid-surface mounts suit board walls and can support a flush installation with service access. For existing walls, check that the faceplate or wall plate matches the lighting device, gang box, and installation style, then select a finish that coordinates with the surrounding room.

Start by matching the accessory to the electrical box, confirming the box uses a single-gang configuration and checking whether the accessory covers the box type and mounting surface. Then verify compatibility with the lighting control device, including the device family, flush-mount or standard installation method, faceplate style, and finish.

1-gang lighting accessories are available in black, white, light almond, brown, and chrome finishes, with additional faceplate color and finish options in the assortment. Some flush-mount adapters come unpainted so they can be painted to coordinate with the wall’s color and texture after installation.
