The frame spans the space between a pair of hanger bars and its corners have a plurality of mountings to accommodate different types of hanger bar such as flat horizontal, flat vertical, and adjustable interlocking hanger bars. The frame is preferably a rectangular metal plate with a flat base having upstanding side flanges, a fixture receiving aperture through the base between the flanges having a depending skirt or collar to surround and mount the fixture, mountings on the base for a junction box adjacent the aperture, and bendable hanger bar securing corners. The plate is sufficiently narrow to fit through the conventional ceiling aperture for the fixture.
