Review on Arlington Non Metallic Box Extender 1 Gang: Enhancing Electrical Enclosures for Optimal Space by Jeremy Tyson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exactly what I needed for my old wallbox

This was exactly what I needed to install a new socket with USB ports in a somewhat old wallbox. subject to the extra 1/4-1/2 inch clearance I need to be really comfortable. Matches both smaller and larger wall tiles so I can mix and match with other tiles in the room. As a piece of plastic, I had to install a ground wire from the metal wall box to the ground screw on the outlet. The socket now protrudes a little from the wall, so it's better to use it in places where you won't collide with other objects (I have it under the table). The color goes well with standard white sockets and wall panels.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket
