Very Tall Custom Sizes From Completely Blank Panels

If you have a hard-to-find wall plate situation such as odd screw or device opening requirements (non-standard screw hole spreads, off-center spacing, etc.), another option is to select a blank no-hole switch plate panel and add your own drilled holes - either at a machine shop or with your hand drill. That way, you'll have a neatly finished switch plate with standard beveled edges but in your unique layout. To create your custom plate, choose from oversized panels that are 5.5", 6.38", 7.5", 8.19", 10" or 12" high.

You can even cut your own holes in it if creating a switch or outlet cover for customized machinery. (Works great as a low-profile magnet board, too.) Buy an Extra Large Hole in the Wall Cover Plate

Typically used on combination (multiple-gang) switch plate covers, simply start with the closest size you need and change the misconfigured opening to the type you need. View all Cover Plate Inserts and Blank Fillers.
