Yes, I believe so. Do a search for the install instructions and there are different scenarios described there.

    Could i install it out in the open in the slab of my backyard

    No - this is not intended to be installed in wet locations. The flip covers are not water tight. Even if they were water tight when closed, installing a floor outlet outdoors will not work well if the cover is left open and rainfall fills the box with water.

    No, this should not be installed outdoors.

        What are the two small screw plugs on the front inside corners of the hinged caps there for. Is it possible to remove one of those screw plugs and then close the cap while a wire is plugged into the receptacle?

        Answer This Question

        The two small screws are for locking the covers in the closed position. The screws cannot be removed to accommodate a cord, and the cover cannot be closed while a cord is plugged into the outlet. I don't think HD sells a floor box designed for embedding in concrete with a cover that can be closed while a cord is plugged in. If you do not need a concrete rated box, check this one: Home Depot Store SKU #623176. It can be closed while a cord is plugged in. Good luck with your project!

        The screw are to lock the plug cover down. Covers cannot close when a plug is in place and stick straight up.. Plug is not recessed so plug sticks up as well.

        It's been a while since I have purchased this item. If my memory serves me correctly, they lock down the covers when the outlet/s are not in use. Hope this helps.

          Those screws secure the covers when closed. You cannot close the covers when the outlets are in use.

            Is the cover, that sits up vertical, not flush with floor, is the cover removeable when in use? It is in the Way and it is an obstruction.

              Installed properly,the cover is flush with the floor. In use, each socket's cover flips up. It is no more of an obstruction than the wire from the plug in the socket, so, no.

                Plug cover sits up vertical when a plug is in place and plugs are not recessed. Covers do not seem to be removable. Very poorly designed a s far as I'm concerned.

                No. The flip cover stays attached to the box cover. It is not removable.

                  Does the plug recessed or is the plug above the floor box?

                  If you install it correctly, the top plate will be level with the floor. I suggest that before you attempt it with the finished floor, use a short piece of 2x8 as a test fit. The direction measurements can be confusing.

                    Installed in 3/8" maple tongue and groove flooring over 3/4" sub-floor (you need 2 different diameter holes saws to flush mount). The brass plug "lid" held down by "screw" pops up and outlet is approx. 3/16" below brass lid, so plug sticks out above box...

                              Bad Instructions
                              This was EXACTLY what I was looking for for an outlet under my mobile island. However, the installation instructions were terrible, and the top plate did not work with the parts they sent. It wasn't until after I followed the instructions to drill a 4 1/2" hole that I realized that the plate actually measured only 4 1/4". Are you kidding me?! And when the gasket support is used as instructed, the outlet covers will not open more than 1/2"...not enough to plug in any kind of plug at all. And then when I finally altered the outlet box and the gasket support by grinding them down for the hinge to open, it is nearly impossible to CLOSE the two outlet covers enough to turn the lock and keep them shut. SUPER frustrated.

                              We are sorry to hear that you had bad experience with this floor box. On the 862DB, our installation instructions sheet specifies to drill a 3-3/4" diameter hole through the floor (see step 2) - the complete installation instructions sheet where it states the hole diameter. Regarding the other issue described, please contact us directly so we can discuss in detail. You can reach us at 1-844-95-SERVE (1-844-957-3783).

                                Would be nice if manufactured correctly and instructions were right
                                If you buy this for a wood floor, be sure to do a test cut & fit on some thick scrap wood first. The instructions are wrong about the width of the rabbet. Use a 1/4" rabbet bit, not a 3/8" bit. Instructions are confusing abut the depth of the rabbet cut, so experiment to get it right on your scrap before cutting your floor. In my case, I also found the floor box was defective. The brass cover screws on with three countersunk threaded screws into three pre-drilled threaded holes on the box's metal flange. On my unit, the three holes on the flange were positioned wrong and so the brass cover wasn't centered when screwed on. This would lead to one of three options: (1) Install as-is and not have a flush installation, or (2) route the rabbet wider allowing the cover to be flush but exposing some of the steel flange (yuk!), or (3) grind off the protruding flange on on side and use a rasp to take off enough of the lower 3-3/4" hole on one side so that the box can be installed off-centered in such a way that the brass cover becomes centered while sitting in the rabbet flush with the floor. Options 1 and 2 both stink. I am going to call Wiremold and get them to ship me a replacement that isn't defective before I try option 3. If this hadn't been defective, I would have rated this as a 4 start, taking off one for the bad instructions. It still rates as a 2 since it has the potential for a nice looking flush installation.

                                  Overall, the floor box is well built! The outside lip Could be wider! Make sure you measure the outside diameter before cutting! Instructions say you need an 4 1/2” hole saw. That is too big! Other than that is a good product!

                                  Hi, we are sorry to hear that you had difficulties with this product. For simpler installation, we recommend using a hole saw (size will vary depending on type of flooring), that way no template is needed.
