A mounting for a lighting fixture is disclosed which includes a T-shaped bracket and a mating plate designed to engage the T-shaped bracket in two positions. The T-shaped bracket is fixed to a desired mounting surface and the mating plate is fixed to the end of a lighting fixture intended to engage the mounting surface. The mounting plate and bracket cooperate to suspend the fixture in a first position below and spaced from the mounting surface while wiring is installed and in a second position against the mounting surface after installation is completed.
