Abstract
A retrofitting kit for retrofitting an existing troffer light fixture having a troffer housing includes a door assembly and a retainer. The door assembly includes a housing and a light source within the housing. The retainer is fixed to the housing of the door assembly and configured to engage at least one of the troffer housing and a T-bar of a ceiling system to thereby selectively secure the door assembly within the ceiling system. The retainer is positioned such that the engagement between the retainer and the at least one of the troffer housing and the T-bar of the ceiling system is direct.
