Claim:
A receptacle box installer apparatus comprising: an L-shaped element with a first arm and a second arm, a block with a predetermined thickness extending from an inside surface of the first arm of the L-shaped element, a recess between the second arm of the L-shaped element and a side of the block closest to the second arm of the L-shaped element that receives a front edge of a sidewall of a receptacle box, an extension connected to a side surface of the block opposite the second arm of the L-shaped element and extending away from the second arm of the L-shaped element, wherein the surface of the block facing away from an outside surface of the first arm of the L-shaped element is rotated to face away from a front surface of a framing member, wherein an outside surface of the first arm of the L-shaped element is contacted with the front surface of the framing member and abutted to the receptacle box, wherein an offset of the receptacle box is compared with a height of the block for ensuring proper installation, and wherein the extension is slid over an edge of the receptacle box with close tolerance for ensuring proper installation.
