The present invention is directed to a lighting system including a light fixture with a bracket attached thereto and an elongated flange comprising a body portion and a coupling member extending from the body portion. The coupling member is adapted to interact with the bracket to secure the light fixture to the flange. The present invention is also a method of installing a lighting system including the steps of: providing a light fixture with a bracket attached thereto; providing an elongated flange including a body portion, a coupling member configured to mate with the bracket of the light fixture extending from the body portion and a stop member extending substantially perpendicular to the body portion; forcing the elongated flange into a structure until the stop member is in contact with the structure; and securing the light fixture to the elongated flange by mating the bracket with the coupling member.

The invention claimed is: 1. A lighting system comprising: a light fixture with a bracket attached thereto; and an elongated flange comprising a substantially flat body portion, the body portion having a first end and a second end, a coupling member extending substantially perpendicularly from the first end of the body portion and at least one stop member extending substantially perpendicular from the first end of the body portion and opposite to the coupling member, wherein the coupling member is adapted to interact with the bracket to secure the light fixture to the flange. 2. The lighting system of claim 1, wherein the light fixture is fixedly attached to the elongated flange. 3. The lighting system of claim 1, wherein the light fixture is removably attached to the elongated flange. 4. The lighting system of claim 1, wherein the body portion of the elongated flange includes a plurality of holes. 5. The lighting system of claim 1, wherein the lighting fixture has an elongated, hexagonal shape. 6. The lighting system of claim 1, wherein the lighting fixture is powered by solar cells, electricity, batteries or any combination thereof. 7. The lighting system of claim 1, wherein the elongated flange further includes a thin-channel for housing and protecting electrical wires. 8. A method of installing a lighting system, comprising the steps of: providing a light fixture with a bracket attached thereto; providing an elongated flange including a substantially flat body portion, the body portion having a first end and a second end, a coupling member configured to mate with the bracket of the light fixture extending substantially perpendicularly from the first end of the body portion and a stop member extending substantially perpendicular from the first end of the body portion and opposite to the coupling member; forcing the elongated flange into a structure until the stop member is in contact with the structure; and securing the light fixture to the elongated flange by mating the bracket with the coupling member.
