If you have over 1.75” of space above your drywall, or, if you only have a small obstruction (like a pipe or a wire) in your way, this will be the fastest and most straight-forward installation method. If you don’t yet have drywall on your ceiling, please skip to the bottom (new construction applications). 1. Layout your light locations on the ceiling Using a tape measure and the layout/grid design that you’ve decided on, layout the location of each light on your ceiling and mark the center of each light location with a small pencil mark.

Before installing drywall, layout your light locations and securely fasten the rough-in plate to your joists at each light location. The rough-in brackets have convenient slots in them allowing you to make minor adjustments to the bracket positioning after you’ve mounted them. Run wire (following the conventional or low clearance installation instructions above) to each of your light locations before drywalling. Before drywalling, double check the location of each light. Once you’ve drywalled, you won’t be able to adjust the positioning. Instruct your drywallers to cut-out the holes for each light using the rough-in bracket as a template. Then, once drywall is finished, install your lights by following the remainder of the conventional or low clearance installation instructions in this document. See full list on aspectled.com
