Not really sure what to post, so I thought I'd go with the template that was provided. I own one traffic light - an Alusig 6" - in which I recently installed a sequencer. I'm hoping to learn how to safely hang it in the garage without pulling down the wall or ceiling.

6"??? Me thinks you needs to get your ruler and check again. Vehicle signals are either 8" or 12"

Welcome to the group!

You won't have a problem hanging ANY signal from a ceiling joist! Chris M. posted his collection on facebook and he has a 4 section 4-way hanging from the ceiling!

BTW....we have your coach!! :Wink2: Go BUCKS!!!

Welcome...I'm over across the bay.

Joists aren't a problem...but don't just rely on the ceiling drywall!
