Cover for hole from old phone jack in bedroom?

by Franklin » Mon Mar 02, 2026 1:08 pm

Removed landline jacks during remodel and left several small rectangular holes in the bedroom walls. Want one cover per hole that looks neat and paintable without full patching.

Phone jack holes are small but always in noticeable spots. A low-profile plastic cover is way easier than mudding and sanding multiple times. I pick ones with a smooth face that takes wall texture and paint evenly—no bubbling or flashing later. The model I used has clip-in retention so it stays put but pulls off cleanly if you ever want to reopen. After texturing lightly and painting it matches the wall so well you forget it’s there. I covered each jack hole with a clean wall hole cover (6×8) and the bedroom looks fresh again. Great for cosmetic fixes when you’re not doing the whole room.
