Cooper Lighting DF2 Series 2'x2' Dry Wall Frame Kit

The Cooper Lighting DF2 Series 2'x2' Dry Wall Frame Kit is a Metalux troffer accessory engineered to provide a clean, finished drywall ceiling transition for recessed 2'x2' troffer and parabolic luminaires. This family-scoped frame kit is available across the DF2 Series model lineup, including the DF-22W-U and DF-24W-U configurations, both sharing the same core frame construction and drywall-interface function. Built with overall frame dimensions of 50.75 IN length, 3.375 IN width, and 2.0 IN height, this kit is classified as an Accessory mounting component designed to integrate with compatible Metalux troffer, parabolic, recessed, and surface fixture options. It is manufactured in the USA and supports ARRA-compliant construction projects that require domestic sourcing. As part of a broader family of troffer lens, lamp, louver, and ceiling compatibility options, the DF2 Series frame kit rounds out a complete recessed lighting installation with a purpose-built drywall interface, regardless of which DF2 model is selected for the specific fixture width being finished.

Cooper Lighting DF-22W-U – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Cooper Lighting DF-22W-U and DF-24W-U drywall frame kits?
The two DF2 Series kits are ordered by the troffer opening they finish: DF-22W-U is for a 2' x 2' troffer opening and DF-24W-U is for a 2' x 4' troffer opening. Frame construction and the drywall-interface function are the same on both, so the only decision is which fixture width you are trimming into the ceiling. Each is packaged one per case, so order one kit per fixture.
2) Do I need a drywall frame kit to install a recessed troffer in a hard-lid drywall ceiling?
A recessed troffer is built to drop into a grid ceiling, so in a drywall ceiling you need a frame to form the opening and give the drywall something to terminate against. That is the job of the Cooper Lighting DF2 Series kit: it is an accessory mounting component that creates a finished drywall transition around a recessed 2'x2' troffer or parabolic luminaire. In an acoustical tile grid you would not use it at all, the fixture lays into the T-bar.
3) Is the Cooper Lighting DF2 frame kit ARRA compliant for a federal or public building job?
Yes. The DF2 Series drywall frame kit is listed as ARRA compliant with country of origin the United States, which is what a government or publicly funded project needs for domestic sourcing on the hardware schedule.
4) How much ceiling depth does the Metalux DF2 drywall frame kit take up?
The frame stands 2.0 inches high, and overall frame dimensions are 50.75 inches long by 3.375 inches wide by 2.0 inches high. Plan the 2 inch height into your plenum clearance above the drywall along with the troffer housing itself.
5) Will the Cooper Lighting DF2 frame kit work with Metalux parabolic fixtures as well as flat lens troffers?
It covers both. The DF2 kit is made to integrate with Metalux troffer, parabolic, recessed and surface fixture options, and it works alongside the troffer lens, lamp and louver options in that platform, including emergency and extended configurations. It is a Cooper Lighting Metalux accessory, so match it to a Metalux fixture rather than another brand's housing.
6) How many DF2 drywall frame kits do I order for a floor of 2x4 troffers?
One kit per fixture. Each DF2 Series kit is packaged one per case, so a run of twelve 2' x 4' recessed troffers takes twelve DF-24W-U kits. There is no multi-pack to account for when you build the takeoff.
