Does anyone recognize these dimmers ? Trying to track down some replacements. I believe that they are MK from around the year 2000.

Any help gratefully received.

If they are just dimmer modules mounted on a plate, I might be inclined to replace them with a couple of Varilight vPro dimmers. You can buy just the dimmer modules for just such a task. Unless they are hugely customised and rely on non-standard control shaft diameters, you should just be able to swap the knobs over to the vPro modules without too much of a headache.

This approach saves any headache of finding a modern equivalent of the design.
 
I don't recognise those at all almost certainly not MK. You might have to look on the back of them.
Looks like they are definitely MK. Some of them have been replaced through the house, and I would like to get everything looking the same. So I either find some original replacements, or I need to find a modern replacement that is two dimmers per double box.tempImagef88MgZ.png

Never seen an MK grid like that. Does the grid or the switches have part numbers on them.
