IKEA TRADFRI On/Off Switch - Cover For Changing The Housing Color

Hello Everyone

Since 2014, I am a maniac of building automation, or colloquially speaking, smart home solutions. Currently, my home is practically 100% automated. I have 7 pieces of IKEA TRADFRI On/Off Switch. It is present in few room of my house. However, I did not always like the fact that it is only available in white. Over a year ago, I designed a housing for it that allows you to change the color and adapt it to the room where it is used e.g. to the color of the wall or furniture on which it is mounted.

The shape of the housing is identical to my other project "Aqara Wireless Mini Switch - Cover For Changing The Housing Color". Therefore, the corners of the housing for "IKEA TRADFRI On/Off Switch" are not perfectly fitted. However, it does not interfere with use. The advantage is that you can install "IKEA TRADFRI On/Off Switch" and "Aqara Wireless Mini Switch" next to each other and they will look identical.
 

When you complete the project, please share a photo and a comment. Thank you and have a nice day.

IMPORTANT - READ :
Please note that each printer is calibrated differently, has individual user settings, and each uses a different type and manufacturer of filaments.  I tested the project on PLA filaments from brands such as Polymaker, Bambu Lab, Fiberlogy and Spectrum. Each time the size after printing was perfect for the IKEA TRADFRI On/Off Switch. If you decide to print the Cover with a different material, pay attention to its shrinkage and the settings of your printer. You can always make it a little bigger and if it's too loose, just use a piece of paper to make side pads. Download a file for a size test print.
