Because Buzzzz'z metal back plate does not mount to an in wall standard box.

The plate buzz shows has four holes, spaced to mount to ANY box cover or two-gang box.

It mounts to a 4 inch welded box with screws in the corner.

What on that plate shows that the box behind the plate must be a 4 inch box? I see four holes that will line up with any set of screw holes for a two-gang cover.

Maybe that is in the wall, but very uncommon for inwall residential use.

In residential use, I've seen four inch boxes, boxes made from old-work boxes that gang together, and two-gang PVC boxes. All of those setups have exactly the holes that would line up with the plate he showed.

Mount one gang box in center with keypad then cover with the first plate shown that has only 2 holes.

Guys, he wants a plate to hold a one gang device on a two gang box. Buzz shows the proper product for that.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
