help w/ recessed light fixtures
building garage & would like to install recessed fluorescent fixtures.
i like the 2'x4' fixtures used in suspended ceilings, but they're 2' foot wide & my trusses are 2' on center, leaving a 22.5" opening. does anyone make a 22.5" x 48" fixture. i've looked in to can lights, but i'd need a lot more & they' cost a bit more. any suggestions? |

if you're building the garage and the finished ceiling is not up, then
you can bridge the 24" centers with 2x to support your lights.\ good luck, tim1198 |
