Pass & Seymour SWP2 Screwless Two-Gang Wall Plate, Plastic Sub-Plate
The Pass & Seymour SWP2 Screwless Two-Gang Wall Plate is built for electricians and contractors who need a clean, seamless finish over two-gang toggle switch and receptacle installations. Molded of rugged .065" thick polycarbonate in a brown finish, this screwless wall plate pairs with an integrated two-piece plastic sub-plate that bridges recessed boxes and uneven sheet rock, correcting floating installations before the cover plate is installed. Manufactured in the United States, the SWP2 is RoHS compliant and Buy American Act compliant, making it a dependable choice for code-conscious commercial and residential wiring device projects.
Key Features
- Two-Gang Capacity: Sized to cleanly cover standard two-gang device openings for toggle switches and receptacles.
- Durable Polycarbonate Construction: Molded of rugged .065" thick polycarbonate for long-lasting strength and a smooth, professional appearance.
- Seamless Screwless Design: Sleek, super smooth construction with no dirt-catching channel around the plate's perimeter for an upscale, low-maintenance finish.
- Two-Piece Plastic Sub-Plate: Bridges recessed boxes and uneven sheet rock, fixing floating installations so the finished plate sits flush and secure.
- Extra Tolerance Fit: An extra 1/8" width and height compared to standard size wall plates provides more tolerance for covering ragged sheet rock openings.
- Automatic Alignment Pins: Ensure devices are properly positioned so wall plates fit perfectly every time, reducing installation callbacks.
- Brown Finish: Standard-size brown color coordinates cleanly with brown toggle switches and receptacles for a unified device installation.

Pass & Seymour SWP2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Pass & Seymour SWP2 cover a ragged or oversized two-gang drywall opening?
That's what it's built for. The SWP2 is a standard-size two-gang plate that runs an extra 1/8 inch in both width and height versus a standard plate, so it hides ragged sheet rock edges around the opening. If the box itself sits recessed or the rock is uneven, the two-piece plastic sub-plate shims and bridges that condition first, so the finished screwless plate sits flush instead of floating.
2) Does the SWP2 screwless wall plate come with the sub-plate, or do I order that separately?
The two-piece plastic sub-plate is part of the SWP2 assembly. You mount the sub-plate to the device and box, then snap the brown polycarbonate cover over it, so no visible screws land on the finished face. Nothing additional is needed beyond the device mounting screws that come with the switch or receptacle.
3) Does the SWP2 wall plate meet Buy American requirements for a government or institutional job?
Yes. The SWP2 is Buy American Act compliant and manufactured in the United States, which is what federally funded and many state or municipal specs call for. It is also RoHS compliant, which covers the restricted-substances line most institutional submittals ask about.
4) Will the Pass & Seymour SWP2 fit Decora style switches?
No. The SWP2 is sized to cover standard two-gang toggle switch and receptacle openings, which is a different cutout from the large rocker aperture Decora devices use. For Decora openings, Leviton offers the 16252 Decora single-gang wallplate and the PJ263-E midway 3-gang Decora plate in thermoplastic nylon. Match the plate aperture to the device style before you order.
5) I am covering a GFCI receptacle - is the Pass & Seymour SWP2 the right plate?
Only if the GFCI sits in a two-gang box alongside another standard device, since the SWP2 is a 2-gang plate for toggle switch and receptacle openings. For a single GFCI, Mulberry makes dedicated GFI block plates: the 97401 from the 9740 Series is a stainless steel 1-gang GFI block plate for duplex and GFI receptacles, and the Princess series steel GFI block plate comes in white. Those have the larger block aperture a GFCI face needs.
6) What is the closest two-gang alternative to the Pass & Seymour SWP2 screwless wall plate?
The nearest two-gang peer is the Leviton PJ2-E, a commercial grade thermoplastic nylon 2-gang midway wallplate. The difference is in how each one finishes: the Pass & Seymour SWP2 is a screwless plate in brown plastic at standard size, so no screw heads show on the face, while the PJ2-E is a midway-size nylon plate. If the opening already has brown devices and you want a seamless face, the SWP2 matches; if the drywall cut is ragged beyond what a standard plate hides, the midway PJ2-E covers more wall.
7) My drywall cutouts are oversized - should I use the Pass & Seymour SWP2 or a midway plate?
Both approaches work, but differently. The SWP2 is a standard-size plate carrying an extra 1/8 inch in width and height over a standard plate, plus a two-piece plastic sub-plate that bridges recessed boxes and uneven sheet rock so the finished plate sits flush. A midway plate instead gains coverage by being physically larger overall - the Leviton PJ2-E is a 2-gang midway nylon plate, and the PJ263-E is the 3-gang midway Decora version. If the cut is only slightly ragged, the SWP2 handles it while keeping a standard footprint; if the cut is well past the box, go midway.
8) Is a screwless plastic plate durable enough for a commercial corridor or apartment turnover?
The SWP2 is molded of .065 inch thick polycarbonate rather than thin thermoplastic, and the perimeter has no channel to catch dirt, so it wipes down easily in high-traffic areas. If your spec calls out a metal plate for abuse resistance instead, stainless and steel options exist in single-gang, like the Mulberry 97171 430 stainless plate or the Mulberry 86401 steel plate.
9) Why do my two-gang plates keep sitting crooked, and does the SWP2 fix that?
Crooked plates usually come from devices that are not square in the box or rock that is not flat behind the plate. The SWP2 uses automatic alignment pins to position the devices, and the sub-plate takes out the recessed or uneven condition before the cover goes on, which is the combination that stops the callback.
10) Is SWP2 a midway or oversize plate?
It is a standard-size two-gang plate, just with an extra 1/8 inch of width and height for coverage tolerance. If you need genuinely larger coverage, a midway plate is the step up, for example the Leviton PJ2-E two-gang midway in thermoplastic nylon.
11) If I only need one gang, what takes the place of the Pass & Seymour SWP2?
The SWP2 covers a two-gang opening, so a single-device box needs a 1-gang plate. Plastic-family options include the Leviton 80704, a thermoplastic nylon device-mount commercial grade 1-gang plate in gray. Keep in mind the SWP2 is brown, so if you are finishing a run of boxes in brown devices the gray 80704 will not color-match the face.
12) I need a metal wall plate instead of plastic for a two-gang opening - what are my options?
The Pass & Seymour SWP2 is a polycarbonate plate, so it is not the choice where a metal face is specified. Mulberry offers steel and stainless plates, including the 97171 in 430 stainless steel and the 86401 from the 8640 Series in white steel, though both of those are 1-gang. Order metal by gang count: the SWP2 covers a 2-gang device opening, while those Mulberry plates cover a single gang.
13) We standardize on Buy American compliant devices - how does the Pass & Seymour SWP2 compare to the other wall plates for that?
The SWP2 is Buy American Act compliant and manufactured in the United States, and it is RoHS compliant, which is what a government, healthcare, or education spec usually asks for on a finish plate. The comparable plates from Bryant, Leviton, and Mulberry are described by series and grade - for example the Bryant PJ Series M-size plate and the Leviton PJ2-E commercial grade nylon plate - so where domestic-origin language is part of the purchase order, the SWP2 is the plate that carries it.
14) Can I use a Bryant PJ Series plate in place of the Pass & Seymour SWP2?
They are not a direct swap. The Bryant PJ Series plate is an M-size wallplate for wiring devices, while the Pass & Seymour SWP2 is a standard-size screwless 2-gang plate in brown polycarbonate. The screwless construction is the functional difference - the SWP2 finishes with no screw heads and no dirt-catching channel around the perimeter, which is why it gets specified in hospitality and upscale tenant spaces. Confirm gang count and device style on the Bryant before substituting.
