DanG you may be right. I need to take a closer look I do have a raised lid.
What you mean is even if I have a double gang single switch plate it may not
be deep enough for what I have.

Thanks,

MC

You should be able to go to any good commercial electrical supply house
and have virtually any pattern of switch cover custom punched.

They will probably have all the normal ones sitting on the shelf. What
worries me is your comment that the lid is the same material as the box.
This is sounding a lot like a 4 square with a 4 square raised cover a bit
like the top left item on this page:
http://www.galesburgelectric.com/Electrical-Box-Covers-p-1-c-386.html In
order to use a conventional switch plate cover, you will need to change
out the raised lid for a plaster ring like this:

And this will probably take an oversized switch plate to cover everything.

I have an exterior brick wall with a metal double gang box (why I don't
know). It has a square metal cover plate (one that is made of the same
material as the box itself). However, all the other switch covers around
that wall are white so I am trying to find one but I searched and searched
and finally concluded they don't make a single toggle swicth for a double
gang box? or was I looking in the wrong place? There has to be one
somewhere?
