Client Needed 100Lb Custom Chandelier Installed/Used a Winch

This video shows a simple way to install a custom 100lb heavy crystal chandelier. We us a winch to safely lower and raise chandelier. I think an electric winch would be a better fit bolted to the floor or ceiling joist for an easier installation or adjustment.

I agree with a previous comment that it was nerve racking to watch. Particularly when the pipe fell through the hole my heart skipped a beat. I thought to myself, "man if that pipe hit the chandelier and broke something that would have been very embarrassing". It is also a shame the wench broke so easily on you. I was afraid it was going to cause a major issue. Great video! Thanks for creating and posting it.

Welcome

Very informative vid ... Thx for posting ...

[@Lewdacris916]

use fender washers on top of the unitstrut so the nut doesnt get burried in the track, or use a half inch track nut.

Thank you

You can definitely get a motorized drop light fitting for these heavy and high lights with switches having them installed makes it way easier to change bulbs and service and clean these large light fittings.

I suggested that but she didn't want to spend the money.

Are you using a hollow rod or a solid rod . I have a 150lbs chandelier should I use a hollow or solid ?

[@Lou-jf4rl]

Hey that's REALLY clever. Thanks for burping on camera LOL.

[@leemichels4319]

Curious about this. I know the wood and unistrut along with the all thread are supporting the fixture. Why was a old work round box used as the junction box rather than a deep 1900 with a metal cover?
2nd question was the wires long enough for the drop or did you have to butt splice everything and extend was a little hard to follow.

[@unitedtradesmanacademy1894]

a 1900 box would have possibly been better, no the wires were long enough did not have to butt splice.

I dont get how u just gave the strap some slack and pulled it out without the whole spool just flying off

[@alexb5717]

Man this was nerve racking to watch

[@unitedtradesmanacademy1894]

Lol

[@NickMorgan-ho7jq]

Pull the strap out and you will have more space to put the lag in.
