Abstract: An electrical box assembly is provided that includes an electrical box and a bracket connected to the electrical box with the bracket being configured to mount the electrical box to a stud, a brace assembly, in a gang application, or, when the electrical box is a first electrical box and the bracket is a first bracket that is mounted to a first side of the stud, a second bracket connected to a second electrical box can be mounted to a second side of the stud at the same time that the first bracket is mounted to the first side of the stud so that at least a portion of the first bracket is at the same height of at least a portion of the second bracket on the stud. A flat blank for a brace is additionally provided that includes a middle portion connected between a first strip and a second strip, a first cutout being formed between the first strip and the middle portion, and a second cutout being between the second strip and the middle portion.

Abstract: A repair clip for a gang box with a damaged threaded opening is provided. The repair clip includes a top wall, a front wall, and a rear wall. The top wall has a replacement opening that is positionable over the damaged threaded opening. The front wall has a leg depends from the top wall at a front shoulder region. The front wall and/or the front shoulder region are elastically deformable so as to apply a clamping force on an inner wall of the gang box. The rear wall depends from the top wall at a rear shoulder region, the rear wall and/or the rear shoulder region being elastically deformable so as to apply a clamping force on an outer wall of the gang box. The replacement opening is elongated in a direction between the front and rear walls.

Abstract: A cover plate that is connectable to an electrical box includes a body configured to mount to a stud, a brace assembly, in a gang application, or, when the cover plate is a first cover plate and the body is a first body that is mounted to a first side of the stud, a second body of a second cover plate can overlap a portion of the first body to be mounted to a second side of the stud at the same time that the first body of the first cover plate is mounted to the first side of the stud.

Abstract: A cover plate that is connectable to an electrical box includes a body configured to mount to a stud, a brace assembly, or in a gang application on opposite sides of the stud.

Abstract: A mounting assembly is provided for quick and easy attachment to engineered joists. The mounting assembly includes a brace assembly and a mounting bracket. The mounting assembly may also include an electrical box. The brace assembly is an adjustable member that extends between flanges of engineered ceiling joists. The brace assembly has two low profile end caps that can engage the flanges of engineered ceiling joists and apply a force against the flanges when tightened. The mounting bracket is connected to a hanger body of the brace assembly by a snap fit and the electrical box is attached to the mounting bracket.

Abstract: Electrical box assemblies are provided that have a support that is adjustable to different sizes. The electrical box assemblies provided also include a cable support that moves from a shipping position to an installed position.

Abstract: A round mud ring assembly includes a base member, a raised member, a telescoping member and a plurality of drive members. The base member has a flange and a circular opening through the flange. The raised member extends from the base member and follows the circular opening in the flange to form a circular raised wall. The raised member has a plurality of mounting tabs extending from the raised wall toward a center of the circular opening. The telescoping member is positioned within the raised member and is movable within the raised member between a retracted position and an extended position. The telescoping member has a circular wall and a plurality of mounting tabs extending from the circular wall toward a center of the circular opening. The circular wall of the telescoping member includes a plurality of protective members. Each protective member is positioned in proximity to one of a mounting tab pairs.

Abstract: A rectangular or square mud ring assembly includes a base member, a raised member, a telescoping member and a plurality of drive members. The base member has a flange and a rectangular or square opening through the flange. The raised member extends from the base member and follows the rectangular or square opening in the flange to form a rectangular or square raised wall.

Abstract: A supporting structure, including a bracket brace and a bracket is disclosed. Preferably, the brace has an inside section and an outside section that move relative to each other. A portion of the inside section can be positioned completely within the outside section and each of the inside and outside sections have a pair of vertical portions. The brace also has a slot extending through the inside and outside sections. The bracket is coupled to the inside section of the brace and to each of the vertical portions of the outside sections of the brace. The bracket also has a coupling members in the form of threaded openings to secure a supported member; such as an electrical junction box, against the brace to prohibit relative movement between the brace and the bracket. The brace and bracket allow new, heavier lighting fixtures and ceiling fans to be safely supported.
