Does anyone know of an over-sized, single-gang, new work, electrical
box?
The standard ones with the swing out tabs are too small. The guy who
re-sided my house with Hardiplank cut the opening for the outside
outlet
too large. I'm trying to avoid having to replace the piece of
Hardiplank.

Arlington Industries does make oversized boxes for outdoor receptacles.

used in remodeling, not new-work,
Just asking..
