These brackets do not use the hanging kit at all, they attach directly to the fixture to make it a solid mount. What kind of fixture do you have? How does the hanging kit attach to your fixture?

I just bought a new Nano-box-reef 12" fixture from Dave and it has two attachments for hanging wires. I don't think I can (or really want to) drill holes in the casing to attach to the bracket.
it looks like this: ![]() but with wires already on the silver attachments. If it doesn't use the hanging kit at all, why does the website have a hanging kit option for the bracket type? Thanks. |

do the hanging screws screw out? or are there any threads on them?

The hanging screws do screw out and the holes are tapped. I know what you're thinking though and it wouldn't work because the electrical wire runs directly in between the two holes and would obstruct the metal plate used to attach to the fixture.

The web site has the hanging kit because some people like to just hang the fixture from the ceiling. These are a different option for people that dont want to dill in to there ceiling and have cables visable.
Let me think on this I know I can come up with something that will work. Can you get me a shot close up that shows the top of the fixture from the front side not from the top.
