Default Replacement dimmer switch.

I think different LED bulbs have different electronics and therefore need different dimmers.
Its not easy.

I'm trying to replace the 5 incandescent candle bulbs in a chandelier

suitable for LEDs is deeper than the current dimmer and I don't want to
start chiseling the wall for a new back box. Does anyone know of a
switch shallower than this one?

or, alternatively, is there such a thing as a standoff?
