Abstract

A method, system and apparatus for supporting a light fixture in an aperture formed in a planar member is disclosed. An aperture is first cut in the planar member at the point where the lighting fixture is to be installed and a light fixture support structure having at least two mounting straps positioned about the perimeter of the light fixture support structure for retaining the light fixture support structure in position in the aperture formed in the planar member is positioned in the aperture by an installer. The light fixture support structure mounting straps are then positioned contiguous with the inner surface of the planar member and are manipulated such that the light fixture support structure is maintained in position in the aperture. The light fixture support structure includes a perimeter member having a wall portion and a lip portion and having at least two slots formed at the junction of the wall and the lip and at least two mounting straps positioned in the at least two slots for retaining the light fixture support structure in position in the aperture formed in the planar member. The mounting strap including a hook member at one end and a v shaped two leg member at the other end with each of the legs having a flange member for engaging the surface of the planar member. Methods of installing remodeler light fixtures in a planar member are also disclosed.
