I have two wall switches that work side by side with one cover plate for both (switches turn on/off in up/down directions). If I want to replace one switch with a timer, is there a wall plate that can cover both the timer and the remaining wall switch beside it? Of course at this point I don't know what timer I'd wire in. I was thinking of using it to turn on/off my porch lights outside. I know I've seen a timer that doesn't need to be wired in which is mounted on the cover plate but I'd prefer to wire it in if I can get the correct cover plate.
