Metal Back Box Clips

[securespark]

Have fitted the boxes in the Paramount today.

The back of the cavity to the fresh skim is 48mm, so I chose to use strips of 10mm wood and stuck them to the back of the cavity with a goodly amount of quick-drying goo applied to both surfaces.

Gave it an hour to go off a bit, then screwed the boxes in.

So far, so good.

Will leave the first fix till the decorating has been done. Next job before the decorator comes is to go round and sand down the rough spots and fill and sand the bits that need filling with Toupret.

Be carefull with them duel boxes, i fitted them and found only certain face plates fitted them without hitting each other and others left a nasty gap between, if i had the choice again id couple up 2 singles
Also theres no adjustment so ensure box is level

And there's no levelling lug.

I dunno before fitting box i usually tap the top and bottom lugs out of the way and fit the grommets

Not saying it has to be done that way
