Perfect for older homes.
Would RecommendThis is a must have for old style gang boxes. Just insert it and tighten it up and the wings or feet really hold well against the drywall. Without this I would have been in trouble!

These are great to add to existing walls. Has wings on it that as you screw them in they attach to the back of the wall. No need to find a stud.

Perfect for remodeling and repairs
Would RecommendFor remodels and repairs, this is exactly what you need. You do not need to attach it directly to a stud but it clamps up to the drywall or wallboard. It holds tight once installed and should last as well as traditional boxes.

Color may matter
Would RecommendEasy to cut whole and place in place. Color may not matter but to me it’s easier to see in a light gray then the blue boxes.
