ABSTRACT:
A hanger bar includes a longitudinally elongated body that has a first end region and a second end region. The elongated body is bendable at one or more locations near or within the first end region. Furthermore, the second end region has a mounting flange and a longitudinally flexible area. The mounting flange extends perpendicularly to the longitudinal body. The improved hanger bar can be installed by measuring a distance between spaced support members and transferring the measured distance to the hanger bar. Then, the hanger bar is bent near the first end region so that the longitudinal length of the hanger bar, after being bent, is no greater than the measured distance. Installation is completed when the second end region is fastened to one of the support members and the first end region is fastened to another one of the support members.
