A chandelier that is hung in a foyer should have the bottom at least 8 feet above the floor. If the ceiling is very high the chandelier may be hung higher than 8 feet.

Simply add the dimensions together. For example, if your foyer is 12’ by 16’, add the 12 plus 16 to get 28. The proper size chandelier would be 28” in diameter. This works for any room. Make sure the bottom of the fixture does not hang more than 7’ from the floor. If windows are present, center the fixture in the window so it can be seen from outside.

What size hinges should I use to hang my door?

Hinge Types Used Around the Home
This primarily depends on the weight and size of the door you are hanging. Doors used in public buildings are generally larger and heavier than those used around the home and require stronger hinges to facilitate the extra weight. Internal doors around the home are generally hollow and in this situation using a pair of hinges will normally be sufficient, but for particularly heavy (over 20kg) or frequently used doors, fitting three hinges is recommended.

How do I clean my chandelier?

World Class Lighting
If your chandelier does not have a lot of crystals, we recommend a soft damp cloth without any solvents to clean your chandelier. If you have a chandelier with many crystals, we would recommend a chandelier cleaner like "Sparkle Plenty" which is sold in Hardware or Lighting Stores. To use a spray cleaner, all that you will need to do is put a towel under the chandelier, turn the lights off and spray the whole chandelier with the cleaner until the cleaner freely drips off the crystals.
