If you have surface-mounted a handy box in a garage, shop or mechanical room and need to finish it with a modern rectangular device rather than a toggle switch, this is the plate that does it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the opening shape matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandy box covers are not interchangeable. The same box takes a duplex-opening cover, a toggle-opening cover or this rectangular device opening, and the one you need depends entirely on the device going in — not on the box. Ordering by box size alone is how people end up making a second trip. Check the device first, then pick the cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 1.5em 0;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003ePLATE 11C10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e4\" x 2-1\/2\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eGalvanized steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px; border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eGFCI utility metal box cover plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eORTECH Industries Ltd.
