Box extenders
I have existing receptacles on the kitchen wall and the boxes are flushed with the wall. Well actually the boxes themselves are flushed with the stud faces plus a mud ring that adds another 1/2" or so to make them flushed with the wall.
However, I need to bump them out another 1/2" so they will be flushed with the back face of the kitchen cabinets.
I know there are all sorts of adjustable plastic box extenders. Are there any extenders that will do the job for one or two gang metal boxes? I can remove the mud rings but the standard metal extension rings are at least 1-1/2" deep.

You could use deeper mud rings or just leave the boxes as they are and add electrical outlet box extenders. They come in one, two or three gang.
