This bracket worked out perfectly, most trades never seen these before. I love the fact that I can complete my install and not have to worry about it.

I had no idea these existed, but I knew that I needed them the first time I saw them. So these are really useful in a number of applications: 1) Open rafters, such as an unfinished garage 2) Open floor joists such as a basement or under a house in the crawl space. 3) New construction 4) Retrofit in a finished garageSo these are perfect if you have an open unfinished location and you want to install canless LED lights, otherwise known as pancake LEDs. I would recommend centering the lights between the joists and fold the extra part of the plate around the beam, and screwing into the side of the beam. This prevents you from being able to adjusting the position, but gives a cleaner look, and puts the end of the bracket out of the way to avoid getting cut in the future. If you have a metal bender or can make a clean 90 degree bend to fold it up and out of the way, it will look real good.If you have a finished application, then these should protect the drywall from the spring clips over time. I used these plate to install LEDs in my finished garage. I have a single story house with an open attic without insulation above the garage. I was able to cut my drywall holes first and then bend and install these plates after measuring the position of the hole relative to my rafters/trusts. I would also suggest just using to simply secure the plate to the top of the dry wall if you don't want to bend the plate.These are stamped, and should not cost more than $2 each. However they are new, so getting them for $5 would is a fair price as of 2024-08. I recommend to shop around to see if you can buy in bulk the number that you will need, and see no reason why these should cost more than the lights you are installing.I am not taking off a star because the picture is clear that the plate has open areas, but I would like to mount the LED junction box on the metal plate; other brands have a continuous solid plate that allows for that.Also these will work with various sizes of lights. Beware that not all lights are truly 6". I have found a number of the pancake lights to be 5.5" and not a true 6".PROs:+ Heavy Duty+ 3", 4" and 6" compatibleCONs:- Price

We are starting to finish our basement and like the rest of the world have opted for low profile recessed lighting. because there is no sheet rock in yet, but i needed the lights in so i can continue to work these were the perfect solution. They installed quickly and easily with plenty of flexibility so i can get everything aligned. The nice thing is i can leave them up when i install the drywall ceiling and i can have something really solid for the lights to sit against.

These are massive so plan accordingly. I appreciate that they work for several different lighting sizes.
