Installation FAQ

Spare Soft Cream Shade Reducer

Professional installation is required

Your Spare Soft Cream Shade Reducer is a hardwired fitting and should always be installed by a qualified electrician. While the electrical connection itself is relatively straightforward, working with mains voltage ceiling or wall wiring carries inherent risk, and a competent, qualified tradesperson will ensure the job is completed safely and to the required standard in your country.

Check dimensions before your electrician visits

Before your electrician visits, it is worth taking a few measurements and checks in advance. Confirm the diameter of the ceiling rose or backplate against your existing ceiling fitting, and check the minimum and maximum drop height against your actual ceiling height to ensure the fitting will hang or sit at the correct level. All of these dimensions can be found in the Technical Information section above.

Ceiling profile and cornicing

If your property has decorative cornicing, a ceiling rose, or an unusual ceiling profile, mention this to your electrician in advance — some fittings may require an additional backplate or canopy adapter to sit flush and look correct. This is particularly relevant for larger statement fittings like the Spare Soft Cream Shade Reducer.

Book your electrician after delivery

We would strongly recommend not booking your electrician until your new light is physically in your possession and you are completely satisfied with it. Trades can be challenging to schedule at short notice — having everything checked, unboxed, and confirmed ready to fit before your electrician arrives avoids unnecessary delays and call-out costs.

Ordering with Confidence

What happens after you order?

Once your order is placed, our system checks stock availability and raises any necessary purchase orders with our suppliers straight away. For items dispatched from our warehouse in Northern Ireland, orders are typically picked and processed the same working day. For supplier-dispatched items, the estimated delivery window shown on this page reflects the time from despatch — not from order placement. We will keep you updated throughout the process, and if there are any unexpected delays we will contact you proactively.

What if I need to return it?

We offer a 45-day no-quibble returns policy on all stock items. As long as the item is returned in its original packaging, in resalable condition, and has not been installed or fitted, we will issue a full refund. Full details of our returns process, including how to arrange a collection, are available on our Returns Policy page. We would always recommend not booking an electrician until you have the fitting in your possession and are completely happy with it — this avoids any complications if an exchange is needed.
