TLDR : Answer Summary

You are generally required to collect your non-O visa extension on the specified date provided by the Thai immigration office. Attending on this date ensures that there are no gaps in your legal stay. If you're unable to make it on that day, some immigration offices may allow collection within a week but not before the specified date, as confirmed by a user from Samut Prakan.

For Samut Prakan immigration, if we cannot make it on the specified date, we can collect it within a week (5 days) AFTER the date specified. The immigration said it cannot be BEFORE the specified date. Hope it’s helpful.

No allowance, you keep that day free to stay legal

As James said, you must go on the date given, as this will be the date it is issued and comes into force, if you go on later date there would be a gap between expiry of consideration period and day you go in where you have no permission to stay, so would be on an overstay & apart from the fine they may refuse to issue a visa extension.
