Hey guys. This is my first post and I want to say that I appreciate all of the experience on this board!!
My question is: Has anyone encountered an install/remodel request for exterior lighting at either side of a garage door where the material is rock? Not river rock or brick which is usually of the same height, but little boulders that are definately not uniform in size or shape?
My problem is that I am not sure what to do to keep my box even and not showing any parts of the box. Also it seems to me that the installed lighting fixture would also not fit flush due to the dissimilar sizes and shapes of the surrounding rock.
I am sure I could cut the hole with a carbide edged hole saw if I am careful, just not sure about what it would look like once it is time to intall the box.
I've seen it done but it appears to me that the boxes were installed as new construction and the rock built around the installation.
Any experience or suggestions on such a type of install?
Thanks!
