Elevate Your Home's Style with Weller Decorative Plates
The Problem: Drab Walls Diminishing Your Décor?
Are your walls looking a little… unfinished? Those plain, builder-grade outlet and switch covers can be a real eyesore, detracting from the overall aesthetic you've worked so hard to achieve. They're a small detail, sure, but like a missing button on a sharp suit, they can make a big difference. You’ve invested time and money into creating a beautiful home, but those basic plates just don’t cut it. They scream "afterthought" instead of "intentional design."
The solution? Beautiful, high-quality decorative plates that not only cover your outlets and switches but also enhance your existing décor.

Finding the Perfect Plate for Your Style
With so many options available, choosing the right decorative plate can feel overwhelming. Here's a breakdown of some popular styles and finishes to help you narrow down your choices:
- Finishes: Consider the existing hardware and fixtures in your room when choosing a finish. Brushed nickel offers a sleek, contemporary look, while oil rubbed bronze adds warmth and character. Matte black is a bold and modern choice, while polished brass provides a touch of classic elegance. Stainless steel offers a clean, industrial vibe.
- Styles: From sleek and modern to rustic farmhouse, decorative plates come in a variety of styles to complement any décor. Vintage style plates can add a touch of nostalgia, while modern style plates offer a clean and minimalist aesthetic. Farmhouse style plates often feature rustic textures and finishes.
- Materials: Metal, plastic, and ceramic are common materials for decorative plates. Metal plates are durable and offer a sleek, modern look. Plastic plates are an affordable and versatile option, while ceramic plates add a touch of elegance and sophistication. Paintable plastic plates allow you to perfectly match your wall color.
The Plan: How to Choose and Install Your New Plates
- Assess Your Needs: Start by taking inventory of the types of outlets and switches you need to cover. Do you need single gang, double gang, or triple gang plates? Are you looking for outlet covers, light switch covers, or dimmer switch covers? Do you need blank plates to cover unused outlets?
- Consider Your Style: Think about the overall aesthetic of your room and choose decorative plates that complement your existing décor. Consider the colors, finishes, and styles of your furniture, lighting, and other accessories.
- Choose Your Finish and Material: Select a finish and material that matches your style and budget. Consider the durability and maintenance requirements of each material.
- Installation is a Breeze: Replacing your existing plates with new decorative plates is a simple DIY project that anyone can do. Simply unscrew the old plates and screw on the new ones. Some plates are even screwless for an even cleaner look.
- Consider adding functionality. USB outlet options bring your home up to the 21st century. Options with LED indicators make it easy to find switches in the dark.
