FAQ
What does "2 Gang" mean?
A 2-gang box, also known as a double-gang box, is a square electrical box designed to house two wiring devices, such as a combination of outlets, switches, or a pair of each. It provides the necessary space to securely enclose and protect multiple electrical components.
What is "New Work" and how does it differ from "Old Work"?
New work boxes are typically used during new construction projects. They can be directly mounted onto studs or joists, or placed between two studs using a bar hanger before drywall is applied.
Also known as a "remodeling box", old work boxes are designed to be installed on drywall after it has been hung. These boxes usually come with built-in clamps and are perfect for adding new outlets to existing walls.
