Thanks for the tight editing and lack of fluff! Most tutorial videos either show too much, have too much of an intro, or have a ton of rambling. I normally hate following video tutorials because the information is presented so slowly compared to just reading it. Your video didn't make me feel thay way at all, which is rare and appreciated.

I try to always cut to the middle and then cut from the other direction back to the middle. This helps me to not cut outside the box and mess up the wall.

Thanks....I didn't see the little corner holes when I picked up the old work bracket!

I learned many things today but the main one is me and this man use a drywall saw very different.

While this results in a clean appearance, it leaves a bigger hole in the drywall than what is needed for a coaxial cable. This introduces air leaks and paths for insects. What are other options for a clean coaxial installation that has better seals? Or do gaskets exist for these boxes?

Hi, there are solid covers that have a coax coupling without any gaps. Check out more home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9?notRedirectToSDP=1&.

Most people run the low voltage 6" to 1' away from high voltage (50v+) to avoid signal interfere

Do you have recommendation for what kind of plate of box for speaker wire? Should I use low voltage or standard boxes?

Can you connect a different type of a more open type of wall plate that will connect to the bracket for multiple low voltage cables?

The screws in the carlon low voltage boxes are too tight. I cant get them tight before I push the box thru the drywall. They are too tight. Anyone else have this problem. Cant use my power screwdriver since it damages the screw head...

I have the same issue with Carlon low voltage box. I can barely turn it at all.

i have noticed when i used these low voltage mounting brackets in my RV when attaching the face plate it is not flush with the wall,there is a little gap between the face plate and the wall,is this normal ??

same here, and i have same question its why i was looking at these videos lol. noone seems to address it. i dont see how to avoid it though, so i'm guessing it's just how it is.

Hi, try holding the ears that swing out and turn the screw with a screwdriver to loosen it up before you put it behind the wall. If that doesn't work, I would return it for a new one and tighten down the screw first, then unscrew it before you use it.
@lorenfizzard92293 жыл бұрын
yes, done that. takes time when you are installing a lot of boxes. Also , still doesn't loosen it much. Mfg.. has spect. the incorrect screw size for the application . Also , just returned 12 boxes back to home depot. @@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel

also, the blue boxes for high voltage does not have the screws so tight.
