Abstract
The present disclosure provides an adjustable-depth ring assembly including a cover plate, an extension ring, and at least one pair of tabs. The cover plate includes a planar rigid plate and a raised portion. The raised portion projects laterally from the rigid plate and defines an opening. The extension ring defines a cavity and is sized for reception in the opening of the cover plate. The extension ring is movable relative to the cover plate along an axis extending in front-to-back direction such that an axial distance between a front of the extension ring and the cover plate can be adjusted. Each tab of the pair of tabs defines an opening for mounting an electrical device to the extension ring. The pair of tabs extends laterally from the extension ring such that a line segment connects centers of the openings of the pair of tabs.
