UPB switch color matching (RCS, HAI, SAI, others?)

[smcdonal]

Can anyone tell me how color matched the various brands of UPB switches are to each other? Can anyone tell me how color matched they are to which wall plates? I read in SAI's FAQ that the colors match the Leviton Decora wall plates. This still has left me in a bit of a challenge as my new brown SAI switches don't match the plugs. I can find brown Leviton plugs to match but I can't seem to find GFCI versions unless I go with the Acenti line but the color name changes (mahogany->brown). They sound close enough to me....

Is there a good resource out there for this kind of information?

Thanks!

hmmm, I know the whites are pretty darn identical but I'm afraid I don't have experience with the other colors.

In my new house I initially wanted to go with Almond but I quickly discovered that not everyone had an Almond or if they did, it was a "light almond" or some other version that did not match well. I did not want white so after some more sample testing I settled on Ivory. That seemed to be a color that everyone had which also matched well. I could not find any other color that was offered by everyone or matched well.

I'm putting in some Acenti now. White is now Alabaster. It is close enough.
