If you’ve ever replaced a switch or GFCI outlet only to discover cracked drywall, chipped tile, uneven cutouts, or oversized electrical box openings, you know how frustrating it can be. A standard wallplate simply isn't large enough to cover the damage — and repairing tile or drywall can be time-consuming and expensive.
That’s exactly why our Jumbo 2-Gang Wallplates with a Centered Rocker/GFI Opening have become one of our most popular products at Wallplate.Store. These plates provide elegant, seamless coverage while instantly restoring a clean, finished look to your kitchen, bathroom, or any room with wall damage around electrical boxes.
The Problem: Standard Wallplates Don’t Always Cover the Wall
Standard-size wallplates measure only about 4.5″ × 2.75″ per opening. That’s fine if your electrical box is perfectly cut, your tile work is neat, and no previous installer damaged the wall. But in real homes, that’s not always the case.
You may see:
- Tile chipped too far out past the box
- Drywall missing or crumbling around the cutout
- Oversized or messy openings from previous contractors
- A box installed slightly crooked or off-center
- Paint lines that show outside the edges of a standard plate
The result? A standard wallplate exposes all those imperfections instead of covering them.
The Solution: A Jumbo 2-Gang Plate With One Centered Device
Our Jumbo/Oversized 2-Gang Metal Wallplate with One Centered Rocker/GFI Opening measures a full 5.5″ × 5.5″ — significantly larger than standard plates. The extra coverage effortlessly hides wall damage while still providing a clean, designer look.
These plates are available in three centered-device configurations:
- Centered Rocker / GFCI (Decora®*-Style)
- Centered Duplex Outlet
- Centered Toggle Switch
All three versions fit the exact same jumbo faceplate, and all are made from durable, high-quality USA-manufactured metal — not flimsy plastic.
