1. Raise the plaster frame and hanger bar assembly to the desired location
between the two ceiling joists. Adjust the width of both hanger bars to the
distance between the joists. Position the assembly so that the mounting
clips of the hanger bars cup underneath the bottom edges of the joists.
Hammer down the nails of the hanger bars into the joists to secure the
assembly into place. (Fig. 8 )

2. When the “foot” of each remodel clip touches the ceiling, push the
remodel clip through the “I” shaped opening. (Fig. 5)
3. Continue pushing the clips through, until they snap into position. The
“foot” of each clip will hook the edge of the hole, preventing the housing
from sliding further into the hole. (Fig. 6)

HANGER BAR PREPARATION
The hanger bars are designed for joists that are spaced 16” (40,6 cm) to 26”
(66,0 cm) (center to center) apart. If the joists are less than 16” (40,6 cm)
apart, the hanger bars must be shortened to accommodate the narrower
space. To shorten them:
1. Spread the bars as wide as possible. (Fig. 7)
2. For each hanger bar, bend the “male” bar, back and forth at the 1
st
crease
from the center until it splits. Bend the “female” bar, back and forth, at the
1st notch from the center until it splits. (Fig. 7)

3. Slide the “male” and “female” bars together and determine if the hanger
bar has been shortened enough. If not, separate the “male” and “female”
bars and break off additional material at the next crease and notch.
Continue to break off material until proper length is achieved. Do not
break off any more material than necessary.
4. Once proper length is achieved, separate the “male” and “female” bars.
Slide the “female” bars into the guides of the plaster frame. Slide the
“male” bars into the “female” bars.
