Switch Plate & Outlet Covers – Collection FAQs

1. What purpose do decorative switch plates and outlet covers serve?
They replace standard plastic covers to add style, texture, and visual interest to walls while still protecting electrical boxes and keeping wiring safely enclosed.

2. How are Old West Iron covers different from standard store-bought options?
Our covers are made from real steel or iron—not thin stamped plastic or aluminum—and are hand-finished with forged textures. They complement rustic, farmhouse, historic, and artisan-style interiors far better than mass-produced alternatives.

3. How do I know which cover size or configuration I need?
Check the number of switches or outlets in the electrical box, then select the matching configuration—single, double, triple, rocker, GFCI, or duplex outlet. Ensure the dimensions align with your existing openings for a proper fit.

4. What finishes and forged textures can these covers be ordered in?
Covers are available in matte black, natural iron, oil-rubbed bronze, and several hand-distressed textures. Hammered, peened, and antique finishes are applied in-house so your covers match our knobs, pulls, hinges, and other iron hardware.

5. Are these switch plates and outlet covers handmade?
Yes. While the profiles are precision-cut for accuracy, the surface textures, distressing, patinas, and edge details are hand-worked by our American blacksmiths. Each piece carries authentic Old World character.

6. How quickly do these covers ship, and where are they made?
Most switch plates and outlet covers ship within 1–10 business days, depending on finish and order size. All decorative and custom-finished pieces are made or completed in the USA at our Idaho forge.
