Bates Choice - Magnetic Light Switch Guards

Very happy with this purchase. The cover is clear, so not at all obvious, but deters people from accidentally turning off a switch that should be left on for automations etc. Note that I would not consider this a child-proofing product. It it is held only by magnets to the screws of the switch plate, and easily removed. Also of note: I was concerned about fit when I saw that the measurement of the body of the plate was 4.2", apparently leaving the magnets way out of range of the screws on my standard switch plate. I decided to try it anyway, and it fits perfectly. The length measurement should be amended to include the full length of the item, including the screws.

Very impressed with the product. Well made, simple and effective design to protect decora switches from accidental activations. Magnets are strong and fit is perfect. I used my two on a single and double switch plate. I will order again. I should clarify this is not a childproof cover. It is designed to prevent accidental activations and that is does very well.

It does the job. Clear plastic seems of decent quality. Magnets attach easily to switch plate. Mine has three switches and I want one of them on all the time, so it makes it easy/obvious that guests won't accidentally switch off the wrong one. Definitely not child proof (can easily be removed) unless maybe you tape it down or something, but good for what I wanted it to do.

Should have bought them years ago.

This was used to prevent a hidden/blind adjoining light switch from being turned on. It has worked wonderfully for that. The magnets attach it to the screws yet can the cover can be easily removed as necessary. Made of a clear plastic, the look is acceptable in all situations I can think of. It prevents unwanted switching yet can be rmoved without tools. A good find and great product!
