Default Door-operated mains light switch

Hello PHG

P| I've got a cupboard under the stairs which my kids use for
P| their coats/bags etc. It's already fitted with a bulb
P| and conventional manual light switch. Because they're always
P| forgetting to turn the light off, I was hoping to replace
P| the switch with one that's enabled (presumably a spring
P| mechanism) when the door is open, and turned off when the
P| door is closed. Are these available for mains circuits ? I
P| only recall seeing them for 9 or 12V circuits in wardrobes
P| etc. Thanks Paul


Cheaper: A PIR flood from the sheds.
