As part of my shed wiring project, I was looking at choices for
weatherproof boxes for my receptacles and cable TV jack. I wanted
boxes that weren't so obtrusive - I didn't want to mount those grey
weatherproof boxes that Home Depot and Lowes carry on the exterior
wall, I wanted something with less of a profile.

I found this on the web, which is perfect since my wires come up
inside the shed and the only part of the box that is exposed is the
cover and flange. Easy installation inside and low profile outside -
the best of both worlds.

So I took the picture to both Home Depot and Lowes and not only didn't
they carry anything like that, they didn't know where to get them. I
stopped at an Aubuchon Hardware while on a road trip last weekend and
they didn't carry them either. (Aubuchon Hardware is a chain of about
130 hardware stores spread throughout the northeast.

Yesterday I went to a local lighting design center that has a
"contractor's counter" in the back. I showed the counter guy the
picture and he immediately asked "New work or old, white cover or
clear?"

$20 later and I was back in my car with 2 boxes so I can complete the
project this weekend.

Why do I keep expecting the borgs to carry what I need?

That's probably it. I'll work on lowering them.
