Braille Light Switch Identifiers

Prints (0)

Description

These simple designs print without support and helps anyone easily identify switches in the home or office to better assist those with impaired vision. 

These identifiers are great because you don't permanently alter the switch plate covers. This is great if you rent or lease. It can be very helpful in helping someone with impair vision adapt to a new environment. 

I've included identifiers for common things such as Lights, fan, furnace, porch light, outlets, and a blank so you can place a Braille label on it just in case you need to identify a switch for something unusual. 

All you need to do is remove the top screw of the switch you want to identify and place the screw through the mounting hole of the identifier with the Braille tag on the top side.

That is a really nice design but why would a person that's blind need light

Simple. People with impaired vision can have guests come to their homes. I wouldn't expect my guests to be in the dark. How about turning on the front porch light so the pizza man can make it up the stairs safely? Or even making it so your furry friends can navigate your house easier.

Switches are used for other things too, such as garbage disposals. Our disposal switch is right next ot the kitchen light switch, so this would help identify which switch is which.
