MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Carlon® Non-Metallic Single- or Multi-Gang Box Extender from Thomas & Betts provides a flush finish for electrical boxes that are installed too deeply in the wall, a situation which arises often during remodeling. It also provides a one-piece solution that can be used on a single- gang box, or combined with other Carlon® Non-Metallic Single- or Multi-Gang Box Extenders for multi-gang applications.



“Encountering electrical boxes that are installed too deeply in the wall is a common problem for remodelers, complicating a flush finished installation,” said Chad Smith, vice president, product management, at Thomas & Betts. “The Carlon® Non-Metallic Single- or Multi-Gang Box Extender is designed to correct this problem, as well as address multi-gang extensions, which is a problem that previously called for expensive and hard-to-find multi-gang extenders. Now, installers in the field will always have the right size extender at hand.”
