Floodlight/Camera mounting plate not flush to junction box
hardwired-security-cameras

I replied to a post yesterday that I was having the same issue as the person who opened the topic.
The screws holding the mounting brace were causing the mounting plate from sitting flush with the junction box. I took everything apart and apparently I was having a brain fart. When I attached the brace tot he recessed set of screw holds everything fit. Even though the plastic mounting plate does not fit as snug as I would like. It bends easily. I don't think any rain will get in. I have only been doing electric for 40 years, What a bonehead move. Sorry for the bashing, but I still think the mounting system could be much better.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on the design of the mounting bracket. I'm glad to hear that you were both able to get the installation complete, and appreciate you sharing these installation tips and tricks as well.

- UProbably designed by peeps in the back office with no real installation experience. I am going to be doing the same as user29783.•

Bend the cross piece so it’s concave into the box. It seems to allow for enough pressure to get a XXXX seal.
