Abstract
A mounting assembly is attachable to a pre-manufactured electrical box. The box which includes a pair of opposed side walls, is insertable into an opening cut into a mounting wall. A pair of clip-on securement members are mountable onto each of the opposed side walls. Each securement member includes a bracket positioned on an external surface of the side wall and a brace supported by the bracket. The brace is movable on the bracket so as to clamp the box to the mounting wall.
