Mulberry 30587 1-Gang Weatherproof Outlet Box, Powdered Die-Cast Aluminum

The Mulberry 30587 is a 1-Gang Weatherproof Outlet Box built from powdered die-cast aluminum, measuring 2.750-Inch x 4.50-Inch to fit standard single-gang electrical installations. Designed for outdoor and wet-location applications, this box provides a rugged, weatherproof enclosure for receptacles, switches, and other single-gang devices mounted on exterior walls, patios, decks, or job-site structures. The die-cast aluminum body delivers long-lasting durability and dependable protection for both residential and light commercial electrical work, standing up to sun, rain, humidity, and everyday outdoor wear far better than lightweight plastic alternatives. Its compact 2.750-Inch x 4.50-Inch profile keeps the footprint small while still leaving room for a standard single-gang device and matching weatherproof cover.

Key Features

  • Compact Footprint: Measures 2.750-Inch x 4.50-Inch, sized for standard 1-gang device installations without adding bulk to the mounting surface.
  • Durable Construction: Powdered die-cast aluminum body resists corrosion, cracking, and impact for long-term outdoor performance in demanding conditions.
  • 1-Gang Configuration: Accommodates a single device, such as a receptacle, switch, or other wiring device, within a compact weatherproof enclosure.
  • Weatherproof Design: Engineered for outdoor and wet-location use, helping shield wiring and connected devices from moisture, dust, and the elements.
  • Job-Ready Sizing: Standard outlet box dimensions simplify installation alongside common weatherproof covers, gaskets, and device plates.
  • Aluminum Advantage: Die-cast aluminum construction is lighter than comparable steel boxes while still providing strong, code-oriented protection for exposed wiring.

Mulberry 30587 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Mulberry 30587 outlet box be used outdoors in a wet location?
Yes. The 30587 is a weatherproof 1-gang box intended for outdoor and wet-location installations, shielding receptacles, switches and wiring from moisture and dust on exterior walls, patios, decks and job-site structures. Pair it with a weatherproof cover and gasket to complete the wet-location assembly.
2) How many devices will the Mulberry 30587 hold?
One. It is a single-gang box, so it takes one wiring device, a receptacle, switch, or similar, plus a matching single-gang weatherproof cover. For two devices in one enclosure you would need a multi-gang box such as the Thomas and Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot 2-gang conduit outlet box.
3) Do I need to buy a cover separately for the Mulberry 30587 outlet box?
Yes. The 30587 is the box itself. To close out a wet-location install you add a matching single-gang weatherproof cover and gasket, which its standard 2.750 x 4.50 inch sizing is dimensioned to accept.
4) What is the difference between the Mulberry 30587 weatherproof outlet box and the Cantex EZ Box PVC outlet box?
The Mulberry 30587 is a 1-gang box with a die-cast aluminum body and powder-coated finish, intended for outdoor and wet-location receptacle and switch installations. The Cantex EZ Box is a PVC multi-gang residential outlet box. So the two differ in material (die-cast aluminum versus PVC), gang count (single-gang versus multi-gang), and intended setting - the 30587 is built for exterior walls, patios, decks, and job-site structures, while the EZ Box is a residential outlet box.
5) I need two devices in one outdoor box - what should I use instead of the Mulberry 30587?
The Mulberry 30587 is configured for a single device, so a two-device opening needs a 2-gang box. The Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot is a 2-gang conduit outlet box with three 1/2 inch hubs, which covers a two-device layout with conduit entries already provided. Keep the 30587 for single-device locations such as one exterior receptacle or switch.
6) What size is the Mulberry 30587 weatherproof box?
It measures 2.750 inches by 4.50 inches, a standard single-gang footprint, so it lines up with common weatherproof covers, gaskets and device plates without oversizing the mounting surface.
7) Is a die-cast aluminum box better than a PVC box for an outdoor receptacle?
They solve different problems. The 30587's powder-coated die-cast aluminum body resists corrosion, cracking and impact, which matters on exposed exterior walls and job sites where a box can get hit. A PVC box like the Cantex EZ Box is non-metallic and non-conductive and is commonly used in residential work. Aluminum is also lighter than a comparable steel box while still giving rigid protection for exposed wiring.
8) Will the Mulberry 30587 hold up on a coastal or high-humidity exterior wall?
That is the application it is built for. The die-cast aluminum body carries a powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance and is rated for sun, rain and humidity exposure, which is why electricians use it for exterior lighting, patio and deck power rather than a lightweight plastic box.
9) Is the Cantex EZ Box an acceptable substitute for the Mulberry 30587 on an exterior wall?
They are not interchangeable in that spot. The Cantex EZ Box is a PVC residential outlet box, while the Mulberry 30587 is a die-cast aluminum enclosure described for outdoor and wet-location installations including patios, decks, and job-site power connections. If the box is going on an exterior wall for a weatherproof receptacle or switch, the 30587 is the one specified for that duty; reserve the EZ Box for the residential work it is listed for.
10) My drawing calls for a conduit box with threaded hubs - does the Mulberry 30587 meet that?
The 30587 is described as a 1-gang weatherproof outlet box for receptacles, switches, and other single-gang devices, used with common weatherproof covers, gaskets, and device plates. If the spec specifically calls out a hubbed conduit body, the Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot is a conduit outlet box supplied with three 1/2 inch hubs, though it is a 2-gang configuration rather than single-gang.
11) Is the Mulberry 30587 suitable for commercial work or only residential?
Both. It is used in residential and light commercial exterior wiring, including new construction and retrofit upgrades of outdoor receptacles, switches and lighting boxes.
12) What is the Mulberry part number to order for the 1-gang weatherproof aluminum box?
Mulberry 30587. That is the manufacturer part number for the 1-gang powder-coated die-cast aluminum weatherproof outlet box, and it is the only model on the item.
13) Which outdoor box makes more sense for a large job where I am buying in bulk?
If the layout calls for 2-gang boxes, the Thomas & Betts 2IH3-1 Red-Dot conduit outlet box is supplied in a pack of 100, which suits repeated runs of the same detail. For single-device exterior locations, the Mulberry 30587 is the 1-gang die-cast aluminum box, ordered under part number 30587.
