Arlington Industries FBRS407R – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Arlington FBRS407R fan box mount to wood I-joists, or do I need solid lumber joists?
Wood I-joists are exactly what the FBRS407R is built for. The integrated adjustable bracket is designed to attach to wood I-joist framing, which is the common joist type in newer residential construction and the one standard bar hangers struggle with. If your ceiling is framed in solid dimensional lumber, a standard fan brace box is the more straightforward choice.
2) Can I install this ceiling fan box without tearing open the finished ceiling?
That is the point of the FBRS407R. It is a retrofit, existing-construction box: the adjustable bracket lets you position and secure the box between joists working through the fixture opening, so you are not opening up drywall beyond the hole already there. For new work where the framing is exposed, a new-construction nail-on fan box is cheaper and faster.
3) Can I hang a ceiling fan from this box, or is it only rated for light fixtures?
Both. The FBRS407R is a fan and fixture pan box, so the same mounting platform takes a ceiling fan or a light fixture. That makes it useful for property managers swapping a flush-mount light for a fan in a unit without changing the box a second time later.
4) Is 8 cubic inches enough volume for a ceiling fan wiring connection?
The FBRS407R is an 8.0 cu. in. pan box. Pan boxes are shallow by design, so count your conductors, clamps, and device fill against code before committing. If you are landing several circuits or a fan plus a switch leg with extra splices, a deeper retrofit fan box gives you more room to work.
5) What size opening does the Arlington FBRS407R pan box need?
The pan box footprint measures 3.62 inches x 2.098 inches, sized to drop into standard fixture openings in an existing ceiling. Because it is a pan-style box, it sits shallow against the joist rather than needing deep cavity clearance.
6) What material is the Arlington FBRS407R box made from?
Plated steel, body and bracket. The plating gives corrosion resistance and the steel gives you a rigid mounting surface for a fan's rotating load, which plastic retrofit boxes will not do.
7) What is the exact part number to order this Arlington I-joist fan box?
Order Arlington Industries part number FBRS407R. That is the manufacturer part number on the box, and it identifies the steel pan box with the adjustable I-joist bracket, 8 cu. in.
