Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Achieve straight, secure, and code-compliant light layouts with ease:

1. Layout Planning: Mark your planned lighting centerpoints directly on the ceiling joists or framing structures.
2. Securing the Plate: Span the 26-inch YeeJinHong Plate across your wooden or metal joists. Fasten securely using standard construction screws through the mounting slots.
3. Alignment Check: Use the integrated alignment notches to ensure multiple plates follow a perfectly straight line down corridors or open spaces.
4. Drywall Stage: Once the drywall is installed over the plates, the pre-cut holes provide an instant, unyielding template for your drywall hole-saw tool.
5. Final Hookup: Pull the wire through, attach your wafer light driver box, and snap the spring clips directly onto the rigid metal rim of the plate.

Why Choose YeeJinHong?

Trying to install thin wafer lights directly into fragile drywall can cause sagging over time, especially with larger 6-inch fixtures. The YeeJinHong Rough-In Plate transfers the weight of the driver box and fixture directly to the structural framing of your building. This protects your drywall from tearing, handles high-temperature conditions safely, and ensures your finished project remains crisp and modern for decades.
