Double capacity. Industrial-grade rigidity.
Double your device capacity without compromising on structural integrity using this 2-Gang Steel Device Box. Precision-engineered from 1.1mm galvanized steel, this rugged enclosure resists twisting and deformation common in plastic alternatives, providing a rock-solid anchor for heavy-duty GFCIs, dimmers, or smart home switches. Its generous 2-1/2 inch depth offers ample wire-bending space for complex multi-circuit runs. Fully ETL Listed (4009580) and corrosion-resistant, it is the professional’s choice for surface-mounted industrial lofts or concealed residential framing.
Features
- Double Gang Capacity: Designed to house two standard devices (switches, outlets, dimmers) side-by-side in a single enclosure.
- Rigid Welded Construction: A solid steel body (non-gangable) ensures the box remains square and true during installation—critical for perfectly aligning multi-gang wall plates.
- Heavy-Duty Material: Made from 1.1mm Galvanized Steel, providing superior crush resistance and grounding continuity compared to plastic.
- Deep Design: The 2-1/2-inch depth provides extra room for the multiple wire conductors and pig-tails required in 2-gang setups.
- Corrosion Protection: Zinc coating prevents rust, making it suitable for unfinished areas like garages, basements, and utility rooms.
- Knockouts: Features standard 1/2" knockouts on top, bottom, and back for flexible conduit/cable entry (connectors required).
