Shallow 2 gang boxes
Posted: Thu Sep 26, 2019 11:25 pm
Hey all,
I replaced a switch today because... I don't remember why. It didn't have a cover and I don't like the self contained switches and receptacles, as probably half of the receptacles in our place are falling out of the walls and look gross and disgusting. I had the brilliant idea to replace all of them with standard switches and receptacles.
However, I'm having trouble figuring out where to get shallow 2 gang old work boxes. I have plenty of 1 gang boxes available at Menards, Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. The 1 gang boxes will do me well pretty much everywhere except the bathrooms and the kitchen. I think those are the only places that have 2 switches near each other.
Any good leads?
