I have tried many screwless faceplates, but this one is superior to the others I have tried. Sine this wall plate mechanically (screws) to the threaded portion of each switch or receptacle, they are perfectly aligned. Due to this design, the switch plate ties the switches or receptacles together into a single unit which I believe makes them more stable and secure.

Shelley Fine you’re welcome! They are a bit pricy when compared to regular wall plates, but they look much cleaner and modern.

Well, I answered my own question through trial and error. There is a bit of adjustment in the Lutron base plate, so if you use spacers on the switch or outlet screws that fasten the switch or outlet to the junction box, you can get the switch or outlet to protrude out a bit. Then put on the Lutron base plate and finally the wall plate. These spacers are U shaped plastic and sold in the electrical section of the big box stores. Even with these, it's definitely trial and error to end up with the outlet flush with the wall plate for a finished look. I wish Lutron and Levitron would both build more adjustment into their products so it was easier to accomplish the flush look.

Good video. I did a similar video on the same product. Warning do not buy these on amazon because its likely you will get a faceplate thats not a lutron product. Thumbs up.

How did you remove the metal tabs from the caseta switches? They are in the way.

What I'm trying to figure out is how to adjust the new Levitron outlet so it is even with the Lutron wall plate. Since the wall plate screws to the outlet, moving the outlet farther from the wall just move the wall plate farther from the wall. Any answers?

Before I install this I need to put the right outlet box for my 3 switches. How do I know which one to buy. If it does not fit them snugly like shown in this video then I cannot install the faceplate.

Are you installing a new junction box, or will you be replacing an existing one? Are you installing the junction box where you have access to the studs (new work box) or will you installing it where you already have sheetrock hung (old work box)? You would need a 3 gang new or old work junction box to accommodate 3 switches. If you have metal clad cable (aka BX cable) you'll need a metal box, if you have NM-B (nonmetallic-sheathed cable aka Romex) you can use a plastic or fiberglass box. Junction boxes for receptacles/outlets and switches are pretty standardized height and width wise so it won't be too small or too big. However, you can purchase different depth boxes if you need additional room for wires, but that won't affect height and width. For example here's a plastic new work box (amzn.to/2A4JN5X) and old work box (amzn.to/2A4pd5I) that I have used with the Lutron Claro 3 gang screwless wallplate (amzn.to/2pOKCtu). I hope this helps - feel free to click on the links and purchase them from Amazon.
