Our collections include wall plates with 1, 2, 3, or 4 gangs, oriented vertically or horizontally, that can combine the functions you need (switches, mains outlets, dimmers, USB, RJ and TV sockets, etc.).

Yes. Font Barcelona offers solutions designed for hospitality spaces, including key card switches and fixtures compatible with the most common standards of the sector.
Get in touch if you need a specific configuration. Font Barcelona will study your situation and offer you the most appropriate solution.
A key card switch with two microswitches allows two circuits to be activated or deactivated independently (for example, one for climate control and another for lighting). Meanwhile, a key card switch with just one microswitch only allows for the control of one circuit. A key card switch with two microswitches is the standard solution for hotels seeking to optimise energy use.
Yes. A range of options are available for lighting control. Explain what type of installation or ambience you are seeking and Font Barcelona will offer you the most appropriate solution.
In contrast to classic fixtures with two positions (ON/OFF), those with three positions add an intermediate position: up (ON1), centre (OFF), down (ON 2). These fixtures are commonly used to control blinds that need to be raised, stopped and lowered. These types of fixtures include push buttons and switches:
Get in touch if you have any questions about what the most appropriate system is.
Push button and switch/rotary switch fixtures are used to open or close an electrical circuit. When the circuit is closed, current is allowed to flow and therefore the connected elements are allowed to function.
Get in touch if you have any questions about what the most appropriate fixture is.
Yes. Its collections are compatible with the majority of home automation systems that permit voltage-free push buttons, such as KNX, either directly or through intermediate modules.
Always consult your integrator or system manufacturer to ensure full compatibility. If you have any questions, you can consult the technical specifications in the Downloads section or request further guidance.
You can consult the dimensions and the technical schematics in the specifications available in the Downloads section.
All of the technical documentation, including drawings, specifications and 3D models, is available in the Downloads section.
Font Barcelona’s fixtures are manufactured in accordance with European safety and quality standards, and have CE certification. It also offers AENOR (Spain) and NF (France) certificates. If you need specific certifications, please get in touch.
Font Barcelona outlets include a safety feature that prevents the insertion of objects when only one contact is inserted. It is only possible to activate the connection by inserting a full standard plug.
Font Barcelona fixtures do not include specific protection for wet areas. Please consult the local regulations in your country or seek advice from your professional installer to determine the minimum distance between water sources and fixtures.
Font Barcelona only works with high-quality materials selected for their beauty, strength and capacity to age with style. Wall plates, depending on the finish, may be brass, aluminium, stainless steel, copper, iron or other materials continually being explored to expand its design language.
If you have any ideas, Font Barcelona would love to hear about them.
Each Font Barcelona piece is produced within a local, closely monitored value chain. It has three production centres in Santa Perpètua de Mogoda, and a support network of local workshops, selected for their mastery in working with noble materials.
All production is checked at its logistics centre, where each product is rigorously inspected, certified and prepared prior to delivery.
Yes, Font Barcelona views manufacturing as a process where design, technique and expertise have an equal voice.
Each piece is produced to order and on demand and passes through expert hands that take care of every detail: from extruding the plates through to final assembly.
Instead of series production, it uses an industrialised handcrafted approach, where precision goes hand in hand with the time required to do things the right way.
Yes. Font Barcelona views sustainability as a responsible attitude to design, materials and process.
It works with noble and long-lasting materials, which age beautifully and minimise the need for replacement. Its on-demand production avoids surpluses and reduces unnecessary waste.
It also collaborates with nearby workshops and closely controls the entire value chain, which allows it to optimise every phase of production knowledgeably and respectfully.
Installation is simple, but as with any designer piece, every detail counts. For Bridge fixtures: attach the fixture to the wall box, place the wall plate in position and finally attach the toggle through the central hole. For all other collections: all that is required is to attach the fixture and install the wall plate. For more information, you can consult the technical specifications in the Downloads section.
All of the fixtures are designed for universal wall boxes, although solutions suited to standard British wall boxes and standard wall boxes for the Chinese market are also available.
Exceptionally, the thin wall plates from the Nux collection, due to their stylised design, require a special narrow wall box. If you need this type of wall box, get in touch: they can be supplied directly.
You can consult the corresponding technical specifications to view all of the details in the Downloads section.
Font Barcelona products can be installed in all countries that use type E or F (European standard) and type G or D (British standard) plugs.
If your country uses one of these plug formats but with a different wall box, you will first have to install a compatible wall box.
Please consult the local regulations and, if necessary, get in touch for assistance on finding the most appropriate solution for your installation.
