.25" (Plate + Grommet)

.375" (Plate Only)

Plates with a 3/8" opening are common for covering TV cable jacks.

You can add a MHL-40451 bushing to reduce it down to 1/4".

If you want a 1/2" opening that includes a rubber bushing to protect any cords running through the opening, get a 5/8" hole plate and a MHL-40453 grommet.
