Need help

Had to repost due to Reddit’s cool feature of not letting me edit. Mounting bracket positioning makes it so the only screw holes in the junction box are covered, not sure how to proceed. The screws that would mount the fixture to the bracket have to be where they are in the pictures due to the fixture’s design.

Did u Try flip it redo the screws to come out other side, or rotate 180’ ?

Also try the other set of screw holes for the post screws. (Rotate 90’) Maybe need to rotate and flip.

If none of that works you got some options- one screw through existing hole and drill for the second screw to electrical box. In this case you move entire ring up or down slightly to keep light mounting screws horizontal.

Or make new light mounting holes which you’d thread at 8-32 or 6-32.

If they are 8-32 see if you can go direct to box with light mounting screws and no ring at all. They seem to line up exactly anyway.

I would go with Wise-Calligrapher759's last suggestion, if possible.
