Multi Mark Drywall Electrical Box Locator Tool Kit

A:  Our Multi Mark was designed for up to 3/4 inch stock so it would depend on the thickness of your T&G.

A:  Even if the box has existing wires, tape or cap the ends of the wires and push it in the box/can. One of the blocks attaches to the screw hole and then you put up your Sheetrock, once installed take the sister/ (other block) and pass it along the Sheetrock and it will snap on place. Note if you have a can with two outlets you may need two blocks for in the can or use one for the location and measure for the rest

A:  Depends on how many wires....In a single gang box, I was able to cram the wires back and still use it. I had two romex 12/2 with a ground and didn’t have any issues. The few where I had three 12/2 w/ground romex wires was a bit tricky but got it to work. Obviously if the wire is hot, put a wire nut on it and tape it and then shove it to the back of the box (safety first). The targets are just under 5/8ths inch thick but only need about 1/2in of space in the box for the target. Get them, makes the job WAY easier!

A:  If you have receptacles/plugs installed on those wires you should use our Plug Mark which is designed for use on existing outlets in rehab and remodeling work. If you only have wires, depending on your wire fill in the box you may still be able to use our MultiMark or BlindMark as the “target” only needs to go into the box about ½” deep – so if you can push wires back to allow that, both models should work. Hope this helps!

A:  not if the receptacle is still wired in box!

A:  I just pushed the wires back into the back part of the box or to the sides; however, my wires weren't hot. I flipped the breaker. Worth the effort.

A:  I have had to do this. just push the wires to the back of the box.

A:  the company makes one that plugs in to live plugs i used both and they work great

A:  It still works. just push the wires to the back.

A:  We have the Plug Mark Cutout Tool for Existing Outlets part # 8120 that was designed for use with existing plugs. Here is a link to our part # 8120 https://www.calculated.com/productcart/pc/viewprd.asp?idproduct=392

A:  they do have one that comes it plastic box. but this one did not.

A:  The Multi Mark product does not come with a storage case like the Blind Mark XT, but it does come with 2 targets and the multi use locator tool for use in all types of boxes.

A:  Mine was in a sealed package that I destroyed opening it. The way it is designed all of the pieces will stay together.

A:  No it does not come with a plastic storage box. I put it in a plastic resealable bag
