Switch plate
I have two switches in one box. I am getting rid of one switch but do not want to tear wall up to remove the double box. Does anyone make a custom wall plate that would be double size but only one hole? Thanks for any help.

I always find it easier to search google images. The search was "2 gang switch plate with blank".

You can also buy a filler jewel for the unused toggle opening. Should be a couple of dollars at a supply house.
