Customisation Options for Electronic Components: Adding a Personal Touch
QUICK LINKS: View all Products
As electronic devices are becoming more intricate and unique, it has become more of a priority to elevate designs and highlight core functions through customisation. Fortunately, at RJS Electronics we offer an extensive range of switches and components that can be customised to suit any project.
In this blog we’ve broken down the many ways that you can customise our components, with some examples from our existing customers to get the creative juices flowing!
Panel Mount Switches
LED Illumination
Our panel switches have a variety of illumination options, including:
- Full face illumination
- Ring illumination
- Dot illumination
- Text/Symbol illumination
- Bi-colour/Three-colour illumination
- RGB illumination
Text and Symbols
Our panel mount switches can be stamped or laser etched with an array of text and symbols. We have over 100 pre-set text and symbol options, but we can also discuss custom logos and designs if you want to stand out further.
Materials
Our anti-vandal switches can be manufactured with a variety of metal materials, such as polished stainless steel, brushed steel, aluminium alloy oxide, black adonised aluminium, colour adonised aluminium or brass.
Wiring & Connectors
When ordering components from us, adding pre-fitted custom wiring and connectors will save you the labour, time and cost of doing the wiring yourself.

PCB Switches
LED Illumination
Our PCB Switches are also available with many styles of LED illumination, including:
- Full face illumination
- Split face illumination
- Text/Symbol illumination
- Bi-colour/Three-colour illumination
- RGB illumination
Cap Styles
Many of our PCB push button switches can be customised with caps in a range of shapes, sizes and colours. We have everything from round, square and rectangular caps to more unique shapes. These caps can allow for full illumination, or they can be painted and etched to allow illumination of just a symbol or text.
Text and Symbols
Speaking of text and symbols, our PCB push button switches are also able to support legends, text or logos. Below are just some of the legends that we offer, but you can add your own designs and logos if preferred.
Customisation Examples:
Some examples of custom PCB switches that we have created in the past include:
Our square SPGs with painted black caps, featuring a variety of laser etched legends for a motion control console, used in 3D modelling.
LED illuminated push buttons featuring triangular caps with the company logo and other bespoke legends, for use in mixing desks.
Room automation control panels featuring LED push buttons with custom text such as ‘volume up’, ‘volume down’, ‘laptop’ and ‘PC’.
