Method of marking mudrings to indicate depth

A method of manufacturing a set of mudrings comprising a variety of depths, each mudring of said set of mudrings for mounting to an electrical box, said method comprising the steps of:

• forming each mudring comprising (i) a first planar flange configured for attaching each mudring to said electrical box, (ii) one or more side walls sidewalls extending from said first planar flange and defining an inner opening configured to accept one or more electrical devices, wherein said one or more sidewalls extend a respective distance of a plurality of distances corresponding to said variety of depths from said first planar flange, and (iii) a second planar flange extending into said inner opening from said one or more wherein is sidewalls, said second planar flange parallel to said first planar flange and configured for attachment of said one or more electrical devices to said second planar flange;
• and
• applying a respective indicia providing an indication corresponding to said respective distance said one or more sidewalls extend from said first planar flange, wherein (i) said respective indicia is applied to at least one of said first planar flange and said second planar flange, and is selected from a plurality of indicia that are non-alphanumeric and correspond to said plurality of distances corresponding to said variety of depths from said first planar flange, and (ii) said plurality of indicia enable quick selection of each mudring from said set of mudrings to match a thickness of a wall covering through which each mudring extends such that said second planar flange of each mudring is positioned adjacent to a front surface of the wall covering so that said one or more electrical devices when attached to said second planar flange are flush with the front surface of the wall covering.

A system of marking each mudring of a set of mudrings of varying depths comprising the steps of:

• determining a depth of a mudring comprising (i) a first planar flange configured for attaching each mudring to an electrical 4 junction box, (ii) one or more sidewalls extending from said first planar flange and defining an inner opening configured to accept one or more electrical devices, wherein said one or more sidewalls extend a respective distance of a plurality of distances corresponding to said variety of depths from said first planar flange, and (iii) a second planar flange extending into said inner opening from said one or more sidewalls, wherein said second planar flange is substantially parallel to said first planar flange and configured for attachment of said one or more electrical devices to said second planar flange;
• and
• applying a respective indicia providing an indication corresponding to a determined depth of said mudring, wherein (i) said respective indicia is selected from a plurality of indicia that are non-alphanumeric and correspond to a plurality of depths of said set of mudrings to be marked, and (ii) said plurality of indicia enable quick selection of each mudring from said set of mudrings to match a thickness of a wall covering through which each mudring extends such that said second planar flange of each mudring is positioned adjacent to a front surface of the wall covering so that said one or more electrical devices when attached to said second planar flange are flush with the front surface of the wall covering.
