The five Hager lines of outlets and switches for electrical installations

Hager electrical equipment is available in five main product lines, each designed for a specific application. The Essensya Hager line features simple, sturdy mechanisms, white or colored trim plates, and mounting brackets for standard residential installations. The Gallery line offers finishes in several colors (Pure, Night, Dune, Titanium) with options for integrated indicator lights and light strips; it is aimed at consumers who value design and visual consistency. The Cubyko Hager product line includes home automation solutions (KNX modules) for smart projects. The 1930 line features a retro style that's perfect for older homes. Finally, the Ateha surface-mount series is designed for flush-mount installations where external dimensions are a priority.

Hager Essensya wiring systems: Choosing by application

The Essensya line remains the industry standard for basic electrical installations. The first thing to consider for your residential installation is whether you need a single 16A outlet, a standard switch, or an Essensya two-way switch for multi-point control. Essensya plates can be combined with customizable mechanisms or purchased as complete sets, offering flexibility and cost savings. DomeaShop carries the full range of mounts and Essensya accessories to complete every installation, from a simple single-outlet Hager setup to multi-outlet configurations.

Hager trim plates and cover plates: white, gray, anthracite, and premium designs

The finish of Hager's plates and cover plates enhances the visual harmony of the project. White remains the dominant color in the Essensya Hager line, which is designed for neutral interiors. A great choice when your home is undergoing renovations: Gallery's gray and charcoal palette offers a contemporary alternative without overwhelming the decor. The real question comes down to the material (smooth plastic or metallic finish) and the lighting options (built-in indicator lights, LED strips), which only Gallery offers as standard features. The design of the facade also influences the perception of the system's quality: Gallery and 1930 clearly stand out for their attention to aesthetics, while Essensya emphasizes rugged simplicity.

Outlets and Two-Way switches: Technical specifications

In practice, in this type of residential electrical circuit, the specifications for outlets follow specific standards. A single 16A outlet, 2p (two-pole), is sufficient for everyday use; a outlet with two sockets allows you to plug in two devices in parallel. The standard switch controls the lighting; the two-way switch allows for two remote control points. For specialized applications, the Hager push button controls roller shutters or motors: it features a unique spring mechanism. Cubyko models feature KNX connectivity (home automation modules with RJ45 jacks) and IP55 rating for smart setups or humid environments (bathrooms, kitchens). Checking the protection rating (IP55 for surface mounting) ensures durability in high-humidity environments.

Cubyko Hager: Modular product lines and home automation solutions

The Cubyko Hager line offers a modular design in which each component is assembled on-site: basic modules, optional mechanisms, and decorative plates. This flexibility benefits professionals working on renovations or new construction projects when the layout of the fixtures varies from room to room. Cubyko modules also include a KNX line designed for home automation systems, enabling centralized control and automation. When it comes to Cubyko power outlets, the product line includes models with a built-in RJ45 connector for smart control management.

The Gallery and Ateha Hager lines: Premium finishes and Surface-Mounted solutions

The Hager Gallery line expands the finish offerings with four color options and finished materials (copper, gold, chrome). This Hager Gallery line is suitable for high-end renovation projects or commercial buildings with strict aesthetic standards. The Ateha surface-mount series is designed for installations where the wall depth does not allow for flush mounting: IP55-certified, rugged equipment suitable for utility rooms or light-gauge construction. Each of these product lines from Hager maintains internal compatibility (interchangeable plates and mechanisms within their ecosystem) to minimize selection and installation errors.
