patress box to hold two switches

G-Man · 2013-03-06 23:38:31

Hi, I am looking for double patress box where I can screw two different single light switches either side by side or one on top of the other.. A double patress box that holds a double socket or large switch with just two screws is common, but what I want is like two single boxes moulded together side by side. GMan

The term you're probably looking for is 'dual back box' or 'dual pattress box'

Thanks for the help and thank you indie armada for the kind offer.

I went to a more serious looking place in Rialto and he sorted me out no bother.
