Ratings & Reviews for Hubbell RACO Galvanized steel Old work Ceiling fan Electrical Box

Excellent support for old work fan install

Fantastic support for hanging a fan between floor joists without attic access. Easily fit through the hole cut out for the fan junction box. Very secure

Easy to use, a newbie could do it!

I had an odd placed soffit in a room to accommodate pipes. I wanted to switch the light to a small fan, and this allowed me to brace between the joists of the ceiling soffit. Worked like a charm, and allowed me to adjust to exactly where the hole was already cut in the ceiling even though it wasn't centered in the soffit. My guest can sleep cool now!

bacon saver

Saved me having to get in the attic - a very hot attic

Sturdy Product.

It was suggested I get one of these for a ceiling fan installation, but the installer did not need it.

Works great saves time

Good setup great mount

Works great!

Worked great with the Hunter fan that we purchased for my son's room

nothing to it

very easy to install.

About as easy as it could be

I would give this 5 stars, but the first one I bought was missing a piece so I had to go back and exchange it. Other than that putting this thing up was easier than I thought it be all things considered.

Works well, but broken parts concerning.

I ordered 3 and two were delivered with the wings broken off. Doesn't make me feel entirely safe hanging a fan over my bed with it. It installed rather easily though and seemed quite sturdy though I do worry about fatigue of the pressure over time. We'll see! I also wish there were screw holes I could use to fasten this. The image looks like maybe it does now. But again, that's the part that broke off. So hopefully they also reinforced that?

Raco's usually good. Look elsewhere for this

Disliked! The round shaft is difficult to grasp, to rotate it to be tight, pressed against the trusses. Other brands have a hex shape that works more easily. Also, alignment of the box and box bracket was difficult to make perfect, which is necessary.

These are great!

I was replacing a ceiling fan that someone else put up, only to find out that they never installed a box and screwed it into a 2x4 that they placed between the ceiling joist. I was able to remove the 2x4 and used this box to correct it.

Not what I asked for

This is not the simple mounting bracket f for ceiling fan you can do an easy install. This is for new construction only.

It works

Used it to hang a small ceiling fan. Works as intended and was easy to install.
