We are planning to get the same fan and mount it to a similar sized beam. Can you tell me how it was mounted? Did the wire go through the beam or around it? Is the junction box recessed or did the canopy coverup a pancake box? Thanks in advance!!!!
I don't know if this would help, but we discussed a similar dilemma with our electrician, and he suggested running the wires along the top of the beam, so hidden from view, and simply drilling down through the beam for the mounting bracket, which would simply be screwed on to the exposed underside of the beam.
Hm. In that case, could your carpenter make a dummy face for the wire from some matching lumber, so it'll just look like a plank, but s/he could router out a groove for the wire?
