What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this low-voltage electrical box for its simplicity and reliability in retrofit installations. Most highlight how easy and quick it installs in existing walls without stud access, with secure wing tabs and a reliable grip against drywall. Reviewers consistently recommend it for running CAT6, HDMI, coax, and network cables, appreciating its compact design and professional finish behind wall plates. Many value its affordability and sturdy construction, often buying extras for their tool kits. A few report wing tabs cracking during installation or minor flush-fit issues with standard plates, though most still recommend it despite these occasional drawbacks.

Old work ox plate mount

Would Recommend

This made the plate installation for Ethernet so much more easy and sturdy! I’ll be using this for the other rooms when I run the cables as well.
