seriously what the fuck i’ve been to every hardware store within 15 miles searching for this rumored plate. What I really don’t understand is why every coaxial wallplate I’ve come across is 1-gang which would be fucking useless for my purposes.

i spent 30 minutes today showing the poor Lowes employee who dared to walk up to me while I was investigating their aisle of Leviton the wallplate in my possession, the part of the wall I need to cover, and the coaxial cable that needs to be run through it. Sagaciously, this kinda cute man went “why don’t you just do the ‘build your own wallplate’ and make one that size” and I was like ‘wow okay what aisle is that’ before walking over and realizing the goddamn build your own wallplates didn’t even have a coaxial option.

i still don’t fucking understand why the nomenclature is ‘gang’ for number of outlets/switches on a plate and I STILL DON’T HAVE A FUCKING WALLPLATE AHHHHHHHH

is my only option really about to be to just drill a hole into this wallplate or get a single outlet 2-gang wallplate and just have the coaxial cable running through the empty space like a straw through a donut…no…surely not…right??
