Outlet Spacer Shims

IDEAL Electrical™ Outlet Spacers are a convenient and simplified solution for quickly adjusting the depth of receptacles or switches to ensure a proper fit for faceplates. These caterpillar-style shims have flexible 1/8-inch sections you can tear away or combine to create custom depths, ensuring your outlets are flush with your surface. Perfect for supporting loose outlets and preventing faceplates from breaking, these spacers snap over #6, #8, and #10 screws, slipping easily between the device and the electrical box. Just add a spacer shim over the screw between the device and electrical box then tighten back to its original position. They also eliminate the need to cut plate screws for GFCI devices making IDEAL Electrical Spacer Shims a user-friendly solution for saving time and ensuring safe installations.
