Default Double-sided, through-wall outlet boxes - don't exist?

I'm thinking there is, of course, such a thing as a two-sided,
through-wall outlet box.Â* Because 2x4's and drywall are standardized
enough so you can make a box that will work for this application -right?



It's crazy that these don't exist.


Yeah, he could have sold one to you. For an electrician it is just
another thing to have with little value. Boxes are cheap, easy to
install and a single box has more room than a back to back double.

Look around your house and most others and you will there are few places
it could be used.
