ClearView switch guard invisibly protects switches from accidental turn-off or turn-on. It easily installs over existing wall plates with no exposure to electrical wiring using the screws on the wall plate. No messy or damaging glue, no drilling and no screws into the wall. The unique hinge makes it more difficult for young children to play with switches, but is easily accessible to adults even with arthritis. The hinge can be mounted either on the top or on the bottom. To open with the hinge on top, apply a gentle downward pressure at top of the hinge to release the tab at the bottom. Lift to open. The ClearView switch guard can cover both rocker and toggle switches. The ClearView switch guard can be used on dimmers, motion detectors, oil/gas burner shut-off, security lights, regular light switches and more. This is child resistant and is not meant to be used as child proof.
