4 x 4 Boxes Attached To Grid Wire

[Ravenvalor]

Can someone please recommend an alternative to attaching a 4 x 4 box to a vertical ceiling grid wire? I am installing 2 x 4 ceiling grid radiant heating panels and the supplied whips will not reach the framing member above. The whips cannot be replaced either.

Thanks....

I'd probably use a Caddy 512(or two side by side for more support) with the box attachment clip flipped up, so now the box faces up above the bracket in the ceiling cavity instead of down through the tile.

Good idea. I might be able to position it above the heating panel since it is only about an inch in thickness.

Thanks,

Caddy makes another bracket that is similar to the one Cow posted, but it is made to be used vertically.
