Ratings & Reviews for Hubbell RACO 1 -Gang Galvanized steel New work Ceiling fan Electrical Box

1.5 Not 2 inch depth

Standard is 1.5. The description says 2 inches deep. It’s not. Correct model number just an incorrecr deacription in the specifications section.

great fit for old work

This box was easy to install for a new ceiling light where no box previously existed. Extremely sturdy. Didn't even need to patch the ceiling.

Great product

Super easy to install. Really well built. Highly recommend it if you need to hang a ceiling fan or heavier light fixture.

Very sturdy compared to the plastic one I replaced. Worked for me.

The box for mounting on rafters

This is the best option when replacing a box that was mounted on the side of a rafter and a box with adjustable brackets won't work. Mounts securely.

strong box

very strong box. definitely need a hex head to drive the bracket mounting screws. didn't like the angle of driving the screws. good solid box.

Easy install for ceiling fan.

This made ceiling fan installation easy. Rated for 50 lbs. Made fan secure to ceiling.

great value and performance in updating my home

updated all my can lights to LED with cost effective kit

Easy to install from below the ceiling.

As an electrician, I installed many ceiling fans in my career. This box can be installed from below the ceiling. It does need to be secured to a ceiling joist, but this can easily be done without crawling in an attic. Of course, you still need to sort out power, which is relatively easy to "fish" from an existing source.

Versitile ceiling fan boxes

I'm doing new construction and these boxes provide a very solid mounting for a fan, but I'm also impressed with how well they would work with old work where you only have a hole in the ceiling to work with.

Perfect

Could not use a standard set up as too many things in the way, this box worked perfect. Solid in place

sturdy light/fan box

After having 2 plastic boxes fail and drop the chandeliers to the ground I replaced them with this metal box. Easy to install and I no longer need to worry about a fixture falling from the ceiling. In the next house there will be no plastic ceiling boxes

Awesome and strong ceiling fan electrical box.

Perfect what I needed. It had my ceiling fan up and did a wonderful job I would definitely recommend this to someone else thanks

Raco Box Perfect!

I got in a jamb trying to hang a new ceiling fan finding the existing box with one nail in the joists. This RACO box worked perfectly! It’s rated to support 70 pounds, but I think the house will come down before it does! Thanks Lowe’s!

Ceiling fan is very secure.

This is a great way to mount a ceiling fan in old work without having to climb up into a hot and dusty attic. The most difficult part of the install is removing the old plastic electrical box and the 2 nails holding the old box in place.
