5 gang mudring raised 1/2 IN?

[tortuga]

Does anyone know of a 5 gang mud-ring that's raised 1/2 inch?
Seems like a silly question, but a few electricians looked pretty hard already.
Hubble Raco 824 is 3/4.
An no the boxes cant be moved back its an old existing building with lots of conduit.

A midi plate might be able to cover the extra, would be close though. 5/8” would work, but you probably tried finding one of those already.

Would a five gang masonry box work?

Thank you, I was just about to fabricate one.

How many do you need and what does the location and wall look like? I would use the 5/8 raise and build the wall out with hot mud if necessary. Lots of experience with this due to ole gyp lath walls that aren't the same thickness in any two places.

Just flip the mud ring over

BTW, don't say I told you too.

Great! Just great! Now we have to know how much box volume to deduct. Way to go!

Use 5/8" drywall & 3/4" will be perfect, but if that is not possible then the other suggestions will work.
