Classic for Hue

Classic for Hue

Maximum compatibility. Minimum fuss.


Our Classic range is perfect if you need maximum light switch compatibility and easy access to the original light switch. The simple but clever backplate simply screws over the top of your light switch and the screwless cover clips on and off with ease.


Compatible with most UK light switches up to 15.5mm in depth and 92mm width/height.

The next level of Hue integration

Let’s be honest… having Hue accessories stuck next to your light switches looks pretty ugly right? That’s why we designed these super sleek covers that prevent unnecessary switches from spoiling from your otherwise stunning looking smart home. 

Don't be left in the dark

Keep your original switches cleanly hidden away and never worry again about guests accidentally cutting power to your awesome Hue scenes and making them unavailable.

Alexa, lights off

Regardless of whether your dimmer runs out of batteries or Alexa decides to stop playing ball, a detachable faceplate ensures that you always have access to the original light switch when you need it.

Effortless installation

The simple two-piece design makes installation a breeze and the screwless cover ensures a clean and modern look. Installation is completely reversible too, making it perfect if you’re in rented accommodation and don’t want to risk damaging your walls and losing your deposit.

Made for Hue

Engineered to be fully compatible with Hue, our switch covers and your accessories go together like peanut butter and jelly – guaranteeing a perfect fit every time.

Designed to be attractive - literally

Strong magnets ensure your Hue accessories remain firmly attached to the cover until you need them, at which point they pop off easily - no muscles required!

It's a match

All our Classic Hue switch covers feature a smooth, glossy white finish that mimics the finish of a standard light switch.

Finish what you started

With a full range of matching covers for all your Hue accessories, we know that once you see how great our covers look for yourself, you’ll want to kit out your whole smart home. 

Compatibility

We have designed our covers to be as widely compatible as possible, and if you follow the guidance below you should quickly be able to identify if your switches are compatible.


Alternatively, take our quiz and within seconds you will be given recommendations for the best light switch covers for your situation.

  • 🇪🇺 Europe
  • 🌎 Other

Compatibility check

Step 1.

Confirm that the original light switch mounting holes are spaced 60mm apart. This is standard for most light switches in the UK and is essential for the correct fitment of our covers.

Step 2.

Confirm that the height and width of the original switch are 92mm or less. If the width or height are more than 92mm then the backplate won't fit over the light switch.

Step 3.

Confirm that the depth of the original light switch is less than 15.5mm. If the depth is more than 15.5mm then the faceplate will contact the light switch and may cause the light to flicker on and off.

If your light switches meet these criteria then they will be compatible with all of the products in our Classic switch cover range. Yay!

If your light switches do not meet these criteria then unfortunately the products in our Classic switch cover range won't be compatible. Sorry :(

Unfortunately the Classic range isn't compatible with European switches. Please check out our Standard and Pro ranges instead.

Our switch covers are primarily designed for the European market, but that's not to say that our covers won't be compatible with other countries too.


If your light switches are attached by 2 screws horizontally measuring 63mm apart, then there is a good chance our covers will fit your switches too. 


We strongly recommend that you contact us, ideally with photographs of your light switches, so that we can advise you further.

What our customers think matters

We’re often asked...

Are they compatible with my light switches?

You will find full compatibility information in the compatibility section. Alternatively, take our compatibility quiz and within seconds you will be given recommendations of the best light switch covers for your situation.

Which range do you recommend?

It very much depends on what you are trying to achieve, which is why we have several ranges for different purposes.


If you want to keep access to the original light switch, then the Classic and Standard ranges are perfect.


If you have flush-mounted UK or European light switches and want the slimmest solution we offer, then you should get our Pro range.


For the most integrated solution, our Pro range also has a ‘switch replacement’ configuration which is designed for those who want to hard-wire their lighting circuit permanently on and replace their light switches entirely. Of course, the installation is a little bit more hands-on in this configuration though.


Whichever range you choose though, we are sure you will love it and end up upgrading your entire house!

How easy are they to install?

If you can operate a screwdriver, you’re pretty much sorted!

Our Classic range backplate simply screws over the top of your existing light switch and then the cover clips onto the backplate.


Our Standard and Pro range backplates have a unique opening design which allows them to easily slide behind your light switch and over the wires – and the cover then clips onto the backplate.


We have video tutorials for every product we sell, and live chat experts who are always available to help you out.


How do I remove the cover?

To remove Classic range covers, you simply just hold the top and bottom of the cover and pull.

How strong is the magnetic connection?

Strong. All our switch covers are designed to have equal or better magnetic strength that the original Hue holders they are replacing.
