Can you shorten the chain so it doesn't hang so low?

We attached these to hooks we already had screwed into the ceiling. All we had to do was hang it by a link that was lower in the chain. Doesn't really change the appearance and kept it from hitting the ground.

Sure! The chains that came with it were a bit too short for where we hung it, but a quick trip to the hardware store took care of that.

Yes I used it for this exact purpose for years on an Allez which already has short chain stays. However, I used it with an axiom rack that is amazing and has a wide range of adjustability.

Yes it is adjustable, i dont know the shortest length by numbers, less links on the chain shorter it is

Yes. The smaller fitting twists off. So it can be shortened, but you have to do it from the the smaller fitting.

We did it... just adjust the chain lengths accordingly on each hook. If you need longer chain, it can be picked up at the hardware store VERY cheap!

Less then half an inch hangs better then wire. It really can be nulled by adding a spacer on the bottom. Best solution I found

Yes, that would give you the maximum legth you can adjust the chandelier height to, which includes the hanging lines/chain. Not the height of the chandelier itself.

you possibly could shorten them....by sawing them off...you won't gain much; an inch and half or so....

The chain is about 11 inches and that is a little too long for my needs so I shortened it by placing the hooks in a different link of the chain.

You can shorten at the install. Once shortened you would have to splice wire to make longer.

Yes. There are tutorials online to show you how to shorten it -- cut the hook off and reset the hook with the tool provided. The rope tightens like a chinese finger trap --if you push back on it to loosen it, it will come out.

You can cut the chain smaller to the length you prefer. The closest to the ceiling you can get is about 4 inches.

Yes, it could be doubled over and sewn at the top to make it shorter. There are magnets attached to the hem at the center connection that one would need.

You can adjust the chain but it is hard wired so u can't plug it into a wall socket. Hope this helps

I saw no way to shorten the cords. Our ceiling height is the standard, it was built in 1986. We have this fixture above a table and it poses no problem for us to eat beneath it. Hope that helps.

current chain is pretty short. the mounting point is on the bar, the chain is just to secure it. I just use it on the floor, haven't mount on the wall/ceiling yet.
