Leviton Surface Mount Backbox, Single Gang, 1.45", 42777-1WB, White

These were a lifesaver. I updated the switches and plugs on a house built in 1970. There were 3 outlets in a room, all a slightly different height, and buried partway in a shelf. I brought the wires forward , mounted these on top of the shelves and it looks so nice. I hate having to cut wall plates. Especially 3 different sizes. There are several holes in the back of the box, and I was able to find the right hole configuration for each one to mount securely to the holes in the electrical box. I had to make a couple of the holes larger, which wasn't a problem since these are plastic. And no visible exterior knockouts. More room and flexibility than a wiremold extension box.

My first time using one of these and it was really easy. The cut outs pop out easily depending on what you need. The holes are predrilled and the box is get plastic. All of it was easy and I would highly recommend this

Really shallow wiring boxes, like this, roughly an 1-1 1/2 inches deep, are ideal for special wiring under cabinets. Typically, the new LED light strips are about an inch thick and there is no room inside to wire heavy American grade copper wires (12 & 14 AWG) So, you have to wire the household wires to the lamp cord that most of these LED lights use. These boxes are ideal for hiding those loose wires and wire nut connections. You can easily hold one up and drill a pilot hole, before using a short wood screw (not included). The cover plate has longer 1 inch threaded acres to hold it on (the normal 1/4 inch screws won't work). The box is painted white enable, but easily repainted flat black, or any other color. CONS: The major problem with this box is the cut out. There are 3 at each end one one alone each long side. They can be snapped out with a pair of pliers, at two different points. A shallow and a deep tab are pre-stamped. But, they have sharp metal edges which are not suitable for un-armored cable, particularly lamp cord or house hold wires. These kits need some kind of plastic or rubber bushing to protect wires. The original design was to use proprietary metal surface mounted conduits, not un-protected wires. You can make a pretty good wire protector with a few wraps of electrical or friction tape. A flatter box would be more welcome something like 1/3" deep and standard junction box covers.

Plenty of holes to screw into wall and you can knock out any side to run the channel/wire into it.

Used this to mount a remote RF 3-way switch on a concrete basement wall. Perfect.

Works great for installing UniFi in-wall AP in a garage.

I used this for an Ethernet cable with faceplate. Worked great.

Bought two, one of which comes apart when I unplug a cord. The back plate is attached to the surrounding walls with four snaps, and this somehow doesn't hold for me. I have a tamper resistant socket so there's some additional force but I don't think it should come apart like this. The other of the two I bought works perfectly fine

Excelente producto de alta calidad y bajo precio. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

This works well for an electrical box but has no wire clamp to hole wire where it enters the box. Also, it has limited options as to what to punch out for wire access. Even so, it worked well for me.

Great when you need something electrical on surface of a wall. I’ve installed a thermostat from Meross onto without issue.

I needed a thin box for a plug beside a stair well and this did the trick. The plastic was good and thick and the screw threads were brass so that was really nice. It worked for my application but the down fall was the way it needed to be mounted. You could use the mounting screws at the back but would have been nice to have a way to mount it to drywall like a tiger box. I still liked it and if I need one again I would consider it for sure.

1.45” perfect for receptacles
