Chain Hanger—Use chain hangers to suspend narrow strip lights that have mounting holes up to 5 in. apart. Loop the chain over your ceiling joist, slide both ends onto the V-hooks, and attach the hooks to your fixture.

Wire Rope Hanger—Use wire rope hangers to suspend lights that have built-in spots for the hooks, such as linear bay or washdown ceiling lights. Attach the hooks to your fixture and pull the wire sling over your ceiling joist. Once your light is at the right height, secure it with the wire rope clamps—no tools required. The wire rope is long enough to hang your light on a sloped ceiling.
