Default electric outlet box adjustable extension ring?

Several web pages recommend using these to extend an outlet or switch
box when wood is installed over a wall that has existing outlet boxes.
The problem is, I can't find them anywhere, even online. Lowe's only
has them in specific depths, none of which are what I need. Does
anyone know where I can get them?

Thanks for your help!

After the wood or other material is installed you can't install any kind of
extension that screws to the box. As DD03 points out in the link, adjustable
sleeves are made for this purpose. They come in steel and plastic, and I
believe HD sells the plastic ones
