Model: HS200  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have multiple locations where one HS200 switch is installed next to another one. The wall plate that comes with the switch is single gang.

 

I have tried the usual Decora screwless 2-gang wall plate but these switches pop out of the wall much further than normal switches so standard plates do not work. There is a large gap between the plate and the wall. 

 

Is there a 2-gang plate available similar to the single-gang one that comes with the switch?

@dianay I have looked and tried so many wall plates to find one that matches the color and sets flush.  Through luck, I found these on Amazon because of a review that a user left.  He was a Kasa customer and had a picture of the wall plate installed.  They offer 1, 2, 3, and 4 gang wall plates.  I will leave a link below.  I purchased these myself and found they were exactly what I was looking for including the color and fit.  You would think that TP-Link would take note of this to help others out who have the same question.  But alas, their support is not good.  I got so tired of the lack of support that I signed up for the forum to help others.

I am afraid that we do not have a double gang switch cover.

@Tony Customer service are you watching this? People keep asking for 2 and 3 gang plates. This is very common that the setup for your devices is requiring them. For as long as you have this forum people keep demanding them. How hard is it to produce something that people are willing to pay for it?

@Tony Any update on this? Is this in the plans or even on the roadmap? If not, which brand would best match the one gang plate provided.

@dianay  I just installed 2 HS200 in a 2Gang. I used Lutron Claro 2Gang wallplate (no visible screws) White Glossy Finish, CW-2-WH.  Fit well and color matched well.

@JayC Thanks for the info. I also used the same Lutron 2-gang wall plate for two HS200 but mine isn't completely flush despite a lot of tweaking. Still sits better than the Leviton Decora plates, but I really don't like the look of or the way the Claro plates work.

@dianay 

 

Eaton and Leviton both make a decorative screw less cover 2 gang cover that look and fit almost perfect. You should easily find these at Lowe's, Menards, or Home Depot.

@Jrod20  - I am using some of those right now, but I don't love it. The switches are a bit recessed for me and it makes them hard to use.

@KasaUser005 - Very cool! Thank you for the tip. I will try one and see.

I have SO many 2-gang boxes where I want to put Kasa switches but the fact there is no wall plate that allows them to sit flush is a deal-breaker. The switches are already very shallow rockers so if they are not flush they are a pain to use - you'd think someone at tp-link would understand this is an issue.
