..Hanging Lights & Lanterns

Chain:
Hanging lights come with 1 metre of chain included in the price, finished to match the light unless specified otherwise. Extra chain can be supplied at an additional charge. We generally supply open-link (unwelded) chain with our hanging lights because it is more user-friendly: the length can be shortened if necessary by opening the links with pliers. If specified, however, welded chain can be supplied along with 2 'S' hooks, one for each end. This type of chain has to be cut using a hacksaw to be shortened.

Please note, we no longer sell chain separately without lanterns..

Flex:
All our lights are supplied with black flex as standard (see Letter C on the Flex page. The other flexes shown on the same page are also available for the UK and mainland Europe, but must be specified at the time of ordering. For the USA and Canada, and countries with the same electrical requirements, we can currently supply only black SPT1 or SPT2 lamp-and-fixture wire with an unsheathed earth wire as standard. However we are now able to offer 3 Core round Black or White plastic flex, or clear flex with silver wire on view. Please confirm on order. As for the length of flex, we will allow for 1 metre more than the length of chain ordered, unless instructed otherwise.

Ceiling canopies:
Please remember to order ceiling canopies (roses) with your hanging lights because they are not included in the lantern price. For a selection, some of which are available in more than one size, see the canopies page. If necessary, we will be happy to recommend a style and size to suit a particular light. These ceiling canopies are supplied with an internal mechanism that bears the weight of the lantern and both facilitates and conceals the electrical connections (for drawings of how these mechanisms work, see the Canopies page. We can supply fixing screws for the canopy ceiling plate, but we must know the length and type of screw required (if you are not sure, please tell us what type of joist, say, the canopy will be mounted to). We cannot stress strongly enough the importance of ordering ceiling canopies at the same time as lanterns; if ordered at a later date, it is considerably more difficult to match the colour/finish and will obviously lead to some delay in your lantern's installation

Please note, we no longer sell canopies separately without lanterns.
