HALO HL6RSMF Mounting Frame, Silver, 6-Pack – 6 in. New Construction Frame

Overview

The HALO HL6RSMF mounting frame is a 6-inch, new construction solution designed for install-from-below fixtures. It helps you reserve ceiling space for your lighting while guiding drywall work, making it ideal for new construction projects that replace traditional housings. This frame supports Halo direct mount fixtures and coordinates with your building structure to meet code requirements where fixture support must come from the structure itself.

Key Features

• 6 in. new construction mounting frame that provides tool-less attachment of remote driver / junction box
• Galvanized steel mounting frame with offset aperture and integral bar hanger receivers
• Locking screws provide positive horizontal locking
• Break-outs allow the frame to accept square fittings, cannot be reverted to accepting round after the break-outs are removed
• Got nail Gen 3 bar hangers adjust from 8 to 24 wide

Compatibility and Use Cases

This mounting frame works with Halo direct mount lighting fixtures, including HLB, HLA, RLDM, and RADM product families. Attach the driver junction box to the building structure and use this frame to satisfy local installation guidelines where below-ceiling mounting must be structurally supported.

• Reserve and plan ceiling space during rough-in to accommodate your fixture location
• Provide clear routing guidance for drywall contractors and avoid later rework
• Secure from-below installations with built-in bar hanger receivers for dependable alignment

Durability and Installation Tips

The frame is crafted from galvanized steel for rugged durability and long-term performance. The offset aperture supports flexible configurations, while the break-out options offer layout versatility for square fittings. Use the Nail Gen 3 hangers to achieve adjustable width from 8 to 24 inches, enabling precise spacing for multiple fixtures.

When installing, attach the driver/junction box to the structure, position the HL6RSMF frame, and tighten the locking screws to maintain alignment. Remember that once break-outs are removed for square fittings, the option to revert to round fittings is not available.

Summary

The HALO HL6RSMF mounting frame delivers a solid, adaptable foundation for 6-inch direct mount lighting in new construction. It combines practical features, durable materials, and flexible layout options to support clean ceiling finishes and compliant installations without excessive complexity.
