What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this electrical box for its secure stud-mounted design using screws, which eliminates drywall reliance and prevents loosening. The screw-in mechanism allows precise depth adjustment and easier retrofitting without wall demolition. Reviewers consistently describe the rigid PVC construction as sturdy and well-made, with a deep interior ideal for smart switches and thick wiring. The build quality is seen as a significant upgrade from standard alternatives. A few note minor screw quality issues resolved by substituting hex-head screws, though these rarely detract from overall satisfaction. Most consider it the superior choice for electrical box installation.

Sturdy, easy to install.
Would RecommendThis is a high quality, sturdy 2-gang old work box that mounts well against a stud and is easy to install. Trace the outside, cut it in the drywall, then use the interior-mounted screws to install. Go to choice for adding junction boxes next to studs.

Used to replace smaller box in ceiling
Would RecommendI used this 2 gang box to replace a smaller electrical box in the ceiling that is holding up a light. I was having a very loud squeak in the ceiling from the person walking around above. I lucked out and it was around where the light is. I used wood shims to stick in and fill gaps between the top of the joists and bottom of the subfloor above and it actually worked.
