Description
A fan dimmer switch is a wall-mounted control that lets you:
- Turn a ceiling fan on or off
- Adjust the fan speed (like low → medium → high)
This gives smoother control compared with a basic on/off fan switch.
When it’s described as “Glass Border” and Black:
- The front panel is glass (or glass-like) — often tempered glass, which is more durable and sleek.
- The border/frame is black, giving it a modern look that blends well with many interiors (especially contemporary/modern décor).
Style & Aesthetics
Black glass switches are popular because:
- They look premium and modern
- The glass panel resists scratches and fingerprints
- They match nicely with modern color schemes in living rooms, bedrooms, and offices.
This kind of design upgrade turns even a small everyday item into a bit of a style piece on your wall.

- Current or Load Rating: ~10 A or higher — suitable for most residential fans.
