Tile Backsplash Outlet Extenders
5 screw the outlets into the extender to anchor them in place.
Tile backsplash outlet extenders. 314 20 in wall or ceiling. The approximate thickness of most tiles. So i took the extenders. The tile was thin enough that it only changed the wall depth a tiny amount and the extender would still have little tabs on each end that needed to sit on the wall s surface to keep the outlet flush otherwise when you used the outlet it would simply sink back into the wall which was definitely not the way to go.
If the backsplash has caused the boxes to be set back more than this you ll have to use extenders to bring the box out to the proper depth. The extender should sit forward of the outlet between 1 4 and 3 8 inch.
