Just finished a job where there was flush outlets in poured in place exterior concrete walls. The contractor wanted to add 5/8" drywall to the old walls (beat up badly and had wallpaper on them as well). Instead of using inserts I thought up a new trick and it worked excellent. I put a single gang plastic 1/2" switch ring from Carlon over the existing outlets and secured to each with long 6-32 screws. Then they put the drywall over them. Afterwards I removed the screws and there was no movement at all on the rings. At trim I put in the devices, again using long screws so that they went thru the rings and on into the original tapped holes. The rings came flush to the outside of the drywall, and worked much better than pricier extension thingamajigs.
