Does Deako require any special wiring?

No, Deako backplates work with existing wires in your home. Deako smart products do require a neutral wire which is common in any home built in the US or Canada within the past 40 years.


What if I have multiple switches side-by-side?

When multiple switches sit beside each other, this is called a multi-gang. We support 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5-gang configurations. Use the drop-down menu on the Deako Store to select the correct number of gangs for your home.


Can Quickwire backplates be used on a multiway with wired backplates?

Yes, Quickwire backplates and wired backplates can be used on the same multiway. Check out wiring diagrams for multiways here.
