"I'm on your site and I've found a 3-gang plate with the openings I need, but they're not in the right order. Do you have a plate with [insert configuration here]?"
Because there are so many different combinations of configurations, the higher the gang the plate, the less options you may find. The simplest solution is to re-arrange the devices in your electrical box to match a switch plate that actually exists in the finish you need.
The next best solution is to use switch plate inserts to convert 1 opening to another. For example, see the left plate below? Suppose what you need is to switch the toggle and the Decora opening, but you can't find that switch plate.
What you can do, is order this plate instead and then convert the additional Decora opening to a toggle with an insert. We'll show you how below.
Here is a Decora-to-toggle insert that fits the extra Decora rocker opening and converts it to a toggle:
Here's an example of an actual ivory switch plate with a Decora filler and toggle switch:
So, once you pop the filler into the "wrong" plate, it becomes the "right" plate:
Inserts are easy to use and are a great way to create your own custom switch plate. Kyle Switch Plates carries a variety of switch plate inserts in white, ivory, gray, brown and black. They can be used to convert openings to blanks, or to convert Decora openings to toggles, cable and phone jacks and more.
