How to Extend your Socket Switch Screws with Extension Studs

In this video I show you how to extend the screws in your socket switch to reach the back box - that may have become out of reach to the standard screws that came with your socket switch because you've dry lined your wall with a thermal plasterboard.

Now clearly the other solution in this situation would be to fit new plasterboard dry lining boxes like this https://goo.gl/od7Ss4, but a lot of people say that on sockets at least, with lots of rigorous flex action, the dry lining boxes can become a bit loose with time, and if you're not re-doing your electrics and want to leave the existing metal back box in place, then you've got to find longer screws. I encountered this problem a year ago when I was refurbishing another room in the house, and the longest socket switch screws I could find were 50mm screws - that were only just long enough. But if you're insulating with a thermal plasterboard thicker than 50mm, by the time you've added the thickness of the dry lining adhesive, your socket screws are going to be way out of reach of the back box. So an electrician friend recently told me about socket switch screw extension studs - which allow you to add as many studs as you need, to the back box, that you can then screw into with the standard length screws that came with your socket switch.
