See it in the space
Fire rated ceilings don't have to look like it. HALO Fire Safe Solutions mount flush to the ceiling in the kitchens, entries and common areas where the rating matters. Tap the markers, or tap a photo to look closer.
Two finishes, both fire rated
Matte white for bright ceilings, matte black for dark ones. RLFR and HLBFR come in both, in 4″ and 6″.
Save time and money
No need to build drywall boxes or use fire rated covers. A factory-tested fire rated solution eliminates the need for separate fire boxes, which saves time and labor.

Keeping existing fixtures? Where standard fixtures stay in a fire rated ceiling, codes often call for enclosures to restore the ceiling's fire resistance. HALO canless fits fire rated ceilings between ½″ and 2″ thick.
