I will try to get some photos this week but hopefully I can explain decently. My new fixture came and as I suspected it's a tight fit in the canopy.. VERY tight. No way I could run it this way as the fans are right up against the side. I assume I could drill a bunch of holes in the side for ventilation but I'd rather just be able to cut a whole big hole out of the side (figured I could put in some dark screening and have it still look decent)... is there a type of tool I could buy/rent that could cut a rectangular hole in the side of a canopy w/o taking it apart? Only other thing I could think of to give me something bigger then a drilled hole was the drill bits you can use to cut a small hole in a door for a knob but I'm hoping there is something else out there? Or do you think maybe I could use one of the circular knob cutters and then just use a small saw to cut a rectangle? Figured with a bit of trim around the hole you wouldn't really notice any uneven edges?
Thanks for any tips!
