Description
Fill the gap under an outlet cover or switch plate halfway over tiles or on deeply textured surfaces
Ended up with a switch or an electrical outlet that is half on tiling, half floating over the wall? Have highly uneven bricks that are leaving a gap under the wallplate where moisture or dirt can enter?
Kyle's specialty ring sits under a standard plate and allows you to avoid sealing your plate to the wall. (You still want the ability to remove your regular cover for painting or access to the box if you need to replace or upgrade the device.) This 1-gang under cover ring gives you a way to neatly fill the gaps right up to the edge of the plate then attractively cover the ring with a decorative wallplate - a toggle plate, duplex outlet cover, GFCI or slide dimmer wall plate, etc. You'll still be able to access your wiring without tearing up your wall in the process.
