摘要

A retrofit unit for a fluorescent lighting fixture having a housing with an open face and a method for installing same. The retrofit unit includes a reflector plate for covering the open face of the housing and brackets for attaching the reflector plate to the housing. The reflector plate has slots formed therein which cooperate with the brackets for adjusting the reflector plate to fit the housing. At least one of the brackets acts as a hinge allowing the reflector plate to rotate away from the open face of the housing. The method includes providing the reflector plate and brackets, as well as inserting a bracket in a slot, adjusting the brackets relative to the slots, and adjusting fasteners relative to the brackets.
