K which the original was lost during a recent remodel. I've never seen such a
K thing offered as a standard option so I'm assuming this is something that
K will have to be custom ordered?

May have to be special ordered. First try looking at a dedicated
hardware store (as opposed to a hardware department) for the
switchplate. If not a stocked item ask if it can be ordered from one
of their suppliers for you. (FWIW I have very good luck with the
local True Value affiliate in obtaining oddball hardware.)

OK,

I recall seeing them sold to control the lights, fan, heater in bathrooms.
The same companies that sell the 3-way fixture (heat, vent, light) also sell
the switch.

The switch uses a "decora" type wall cover plate.

I suggest you wander around the section of the "big box" store that sells
the 3-way fixtures and you will find those tripple switches.

Just at my electrical supplier, they had a display of Decora switches with
multiple switch configurations, including a Decora switch device with FOUR
switches that fit a single gang switchplate! If the boxes were only big
enough to handle that many wires!

I know Pass And Seymore (sp) makes that configuration. If the switches are
on the small side that would be them. If I remember monday I will look it up
when I get to work. If you have any more info on the switches It would make
things quicker.
