Avoid using plastic boxes for fans - not strong.

Would Recommend

Metal box much stronger and stable than plastic. Why settle for a lighter box when stability and vibration count?

Electrical boxes

We needed boxes for two fans on our outdoor terrace. We braced these between two 2 x 4 Timbers and now we’re ready to install! Handy

Heavy duty but could use more screw holes

Would Recommend

Solid box and heavy duty steel. I wouldn't mind if they had a few more screw holes drilled in other locations.
