A lamp fixture having a top housing with slightly slanted side walls, a faceted rectangular glass portion extending from the housing and held affixed to the housing by a door, and a junction box and an extrusion plate for mounting the fixture to an electrical or junction box in a building. The extrusion plate is mounted to a sidewall of the housing. The extrusion plate includes J or hooked shaped end portions forming cavities therein. The junction box includes ridges. The ridges are slightly angled to match the angle of the sidewalls of the fixture housing. The fixture and mounted extrusion plate can then be lifted above the junction box, and the cavities of the extrusion plate slid over the ridges of the junction box. The top surface of the extrusion plate is slightly angled to compensate for the angle of the ridges, so that the top surfaces of the extrusion plate and the junction box are flush with one another. The wire connections are made and pushed into the junction box. A top plate is placed and secured to the top surfaces of the junction box and the extrusion plate.
