This guide walks you through the simple process of customizing your radiant smart switch faceplate, so you can personalize your home without needing an electrician.

The radiant® line offers a variety of color options, including white, ivory, light almond, brown, and dark bronze. By using a color change kit, you can update the look of your smart switch in minutes. Let's explore what's included in the kit and how to install it.

What Is a Radiant® Smart Switch Color Change Kit?

A color change kit for the radiant® smart switch includes a new faceplate and adapter pieces that allow you to swap the color of your switch without replacing the entire device. This is perfect for homeowners who want to update their decor or coordinate with new wall colors. The kits are available for popular finishes like white, ivory, light almond, brown, and dark bronze.

For example, if you have a radiant® 4-Button Digital Timer, White, you can change its faceplate to dark bronze using the appropriate kit. Similarly, the radiant® Single Pole/3-Way Switch with 15A Tamper-Resistant Outlet, Ivory can be customized to match a brown wall plate. The process is straightforward and requires no special tools.

• Compatible with all radiant® smart switches and dimmers
• Includes faceplate and necessary adapters
• Available in multiple finishes to match any decor

Step-by-Step: How to Change Your Switch Faceplate

Changing the faceplate on your radiant® smart switch is a simple DIY task. Start by turning off the power to the switch at the circuit breaker. Then, gently pry off the existing wall plate using a flathead screwdriver or your fingers. Remove the screws holding the switch in place and pull the switch forward slightly.

Next, detach the existing faceplate from the switch by pressing the release tabs. Align the new faceplate from your color change kit and snap it into place. Reattach the switch to the wall box, secure it with screws, and install the new wall plate. Finally, restore power and test the switch.

• Always turn off power at the breaker before starting
• Use a non-contact voltage tester to confirm power is off
• Keep screws organized to avoid losing them

Popular Color Options for Your Radiant Smart Switch

Legrand offers a wide range of finishes for the radiant® line, so you can find the perfect match for your home. Dark bronze adds a modern, sophisticated touch, while brown offers a warm, traditional look. White and ivory remain popular for clean, classic aesthetics. Light almond is ideal for beige or cream-colored walls.

If you have a radiant® 15W USB Outlet, Type A/C, 15A, Tamper-Resistant, Dark Bronze, you can coordinate it with a dark bronze smart switch faceplate for a cohesive look. Similarly, the radiant® Tamper-Resistant Dual Function 20A Duplex Self-Test AFCI/GFCI receptacle, Light Almond can be paired with a light almond smart switch for a seamless appearance.

• Dark bronze: modern and sleek
• Brown: warm and traditional
• White: classic and clean
• Ivory: soft and neutral
• Light almond: complementary to beige tones

Tips for a Perfect Installation

To ensure a flawless finish, take your time when removing the old faceplate. If it's stuck, use a plastic pry tool to avoid scratching the wall. Make sure the new faceplate snaps in evenly on all sides. If you're using a screwless wall plate like the radiant® 2-Gang Screwless Wall Plate, Brown, follow the specific instructions for that model.

For best results, clean the area around the switch before installing the new faceplate. Dust and debris can prevent a snug fit. If you have multiple switches in the same room, consider using the same finish for all of them to create a unified look.

• Use a plastic tool to avoid wall damage
• Clean the surface before installation
• Match finishes across the room for consistency
