I need to install fixtures on a wood shingle sidded wall. I like to use the siding blocks made for this like the ones made by Arlington. They include the box right in the block. Just poke a wire through the wall and connect to the back of the thing. I can't find anything that will accomadate an oblong shaped fixture. The fixture is about 6 inches tall and about 11 inches wide. It is weather protected with a gasket that presses between the fixture and the wall so the wall must be smooth and wide enough to seal the edges of the fixture.
Anybody know of a product or a method of properly mounting this kind of fixture? If this were new work I would just ask the carpenter to install a block of the right dimensions while the siding is being installed.
