5-Piece Drywall Box Locator Set
Stop Measuring Every Outlet Box.
Mark hidden electrical box locations through drywall, start your cut in the right place, and spend less time correcting avoidable mistakes.
✓ No Repeated Measuring ✓ Faster Box Cutouts ✓ Reusable 5-Piece Set
One Wrong Mark Can Ruin The Whole Sheet
Traditional measuring means transferring every distance to the drywall—and one small error can leave the opening off-center or oversized.
⌁
Less Guesswork
Skip repeated measurements and locate the covered electrical box directly.
◎
A Better Starting Point
The raised locator tip marks where to begin the cut, helping reduce misplaced openings.
⚡
Work More Efficiently
Move from one box to the next without stopping to measure and transfer every position.
▣
Cleaner Project Flow
Spend more time hanging and finishing drywall—and less time fixing cutout mistakes.
Locate It Before You Cut It
Place the locator in the electrical box before hanging the drywall. When the sheet is pressed into position, the raised tip shows the box location from the front.
No complicated setup. No measuring each box from the floor or wall edge. Just position, mark, and cut with greater confidence.
3 Simple Steps
A straightforward workflow for renovations, new walls, garages, basements, and other drywall projects.
Insert
Fit the locator into the empty electrical box before covering the wall.
Press & Mark
Position the drywall sheet so the raised tip identifies the box location.
Cut
Use the mark as your starting point, then carefully trace the box opening with the appropriate tool.
Important: Turn off power, confirm there are no energized wires in the work area, verify fit before use, and follow the instructions for your cutting tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this detect boxes behind an already finished wall?
No. It is installed in the electrical box before the drywall sheet is positioned. It is a cutout locator, not an electronic wall scanner.
Does it completely prevent wire damage?
No tool can replace proper electrical safety and careful cutting. The locator may provide an added barrier inside the box, but power must be turned off and the work area checked before cutting.
Can the locators be reused?
Yes. After completing the opening, remove the locator and use it again on another compatible box.
Will it fit every electrical box?
Electrical box styles can vary. Compare the locator shape with your box and confirm a secure fit before hanging drywall.
What cutting tool should I use?
Use an appropriate drywall cutting tool and follow its safety instructions. This set locates the box; the cutting tool is not included.
