A Practical Guide to Smart Panel Selection Based on Room Size, Functionality & Design
In the age of smart living, the switch panel is no longer just a basic utility—it’s a design statement, a control hub, and a reflection of modern convenience. But with multiple smart switch panel options available—1-button, 4-buttons, 6-buttons, 8-buttons and beyond—how do you decide which one suits your space best?
Here’s a clear and practical guide to help you choose the right Gladiance smart switch panel for every room in your home.
1. Living Room: The Command Center
Best Panel Type: 6-buttons or 8-buttons Panel
Why: The living room typically houses multiple lighting zones, ceiling fans, ambient lighting, entertainment systems, and curtains. A multi-button panel allows centralized control without clutter.
Pro Tip: Opt for an 8-buttons panel if you have motorized blinds, dimmable lighting, or multiple smart devices.
2. Bedroom: Comfort Meets Convenience
Best Panel Type: 4-buttons or 6-buttons Panel
Why: Bedrooms require convenience—bedside lighting, fan/AC control, charging ports, and maybe mood lighting.
Add-on Suggestion: Choose a 6-buttons panel with USB panel if you want to eliminate bulky bedside chargers and keep your nightstand tidy.
3. Kitchen: Functional and Minimal
Best Panel Type: 1-button or 4-buttons Panel
Why: Kitchens usually have minimal automation needs—exhaust fans, task lights, under-cabinet lights.
Pro Tip: Go for a compact 1-button switch if space is tight or appliances are connected to smart plugs.
4. Bathroom: Simple Yet Smart
Best Panel Type: 1-button or 4-buttons Panel
Why: Bathroom automation typically includes a geyser, ventilation fan, and mirror lighting. A 4-buttons panel covers these essentials without overwhelming the space.
Safety Note: Gladiance panels are true wireless and require no rewiring, making them safe for all users in wet areas.
Pro tip: You can use occupancy sensors and avoid panels completely.
5. Home Office or Study: Focused Functionality
Best Panel Type: 4-buttons or 6-buttons Panel
Why: You’ll want lighting control, AC, smart blinds, and maybe even a plug point to reset your router.
Pro Tip: Consider Gladiance’s customizable labels/buttons to personalize controls for productivity zones.
6. Guest Room: Simple, User-Friendly
Best Panel Type: 4-buttons Panel
Why: Keep it minimal yet intuitive. Lights, fan, and one USB port—everything a guest might need, accessible without app learning curves.
Bonus: With reprogrammable panels, you can change configurations anytime without rewiring.
