Like a canvas ready for paint, our custom canopy is ready for you to use for your next project. From ceiling pendants and chandeliers to wall sconces, this innocent-looking circle can transform into a wide variety of luminary possibilities.  This versatile component will lay the foundation for your design by covering the electrical box and protecting the wiring connection while adding a decorative touch. 

For our raw metal and raw brass finishes, keep in mind that these are untreated and designed to have a natural, industrial look. So they are intended to be in their raw state with imperfections and color variations, which will oxidize and tarnish over time similar to upcycled applications. However, our raw finish is perfect for anyone that wants to buff and polish the brass to their liking or sand and paint the metal to the color of your choosing.  

The round blank ceiling canopy comes with a metal canopy, mounting plate, mounting screws, as well as wire connectors. The canopy is secured with two side screws, leaving a clean surface. With all lighting projects and DIY fixture assembly, we always recommend consulting a licensed electrician.

Frequently Asked Questions

Installation Questions

How do I install a flush mount fixture to a junction box?

To install your flush mounted fixture to a junction box, first, you’ll want to turn everything off. Next, attach the mounting plate and connect the wiring. To secure the canopy, you’ll need to push the wires into the junction box and attach it to the mounting plate with the canopy screws. Finally, add your light bulbs, flip the breaker and watch your lights go on!

How do I add swag to my fixture installation?

You’ve designed a unique way to hang up your fixture and you need a little help putting all the pieces together. We get it and we’re here to help! To install your swag hooks, hammer the anchor into your ceiling or wall until you get to the threaded portion. Use a screwdriver to twist the anchor the rest of the way into the ceiling or wall until it’s flush with the surface. Now, mount the backplate to the structure by inserting the screw into the anchor. Finally, use an allen wrench to completely secure the hook to the backplate.

Product Questions

I'm looking for a specific product that is not on your website, can you help me find it?

We would love to help you in any way we can! Please give us a call, connect with us on live chat, or send us an email and we will see how we can help.

Will your fixture work with my lampshade?

We sell sockets and parts that are intended to be used for hanging pendants with a Euro-style shade. There are actually many different types of shades and fitters so you will need to make sure that your shade and our shade-ready socket will work together. Otherwise, there are outside vendors that specialize in the wide variety of shades and shade parts where you can find reducers and adaptors to allow your shade opening to work with our fixtures and sockets.

Unfortunately, shades do not have a universal size and there are many variables that go into the shade compatibility, so we can not answer this question without more details and possibly viewing images to help us assess your shade.

Do you provide any fixtures or cord that will work outside?

All Color Cord Company products are intended for dry locations only. At this time, we do not offer any products that are suitable for wet or damp locations where it may come in contact with moisture or humidity.

Order Issues

Can I return my order?

We gladly accept returns on all eligible products. We do not offer refunds on our DIY pendant light cord sold by the foot, however. The bulk cord is cut-to-order and for this reason, is not returnable or exchangeable.

We also do not accept returns or exchanges on light bulbs. Due to their fragile nature, we can only ship them once. All customized fixtures and products are final sale, as they are built to your specification and cannot be resold. Any other custom work is not eligible for returns.

Click here for more return information. In order to initiate a return request, please email us your order number and the reason for your return so that we can provide return authorization details.

How do I cancel or change an order?

Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to modify or change an order. Since we do our best to ship orders as quickly as possible, we cannot modify any orders that have already been shipped. We also may not be able to modify any custom orders that have already entered production without additional costs.

Technical Questions

I need assistance wiring a DIY lighting project, can you help me?

For liability reasons, Color Cord Company personnel do not give recommendations on how to wire or what applications to use our products for your specific project. Actions such as hard-wiring a pendant set or making any type of light fixture from our products should be done so at your own risk. Please consult a licensed electrician for all electrical and wiring inquiries.

Are your products UL/CSA listed/recognized?

You can find which products are UL Listed on the individual product pages. Most of our products are UL and cUL Listed, but there are a small handful of exceptions.

  • Our fabric covered wire is fully UL Listed including the fabric braiding as SVT-B and SJT-B flexible wire. We partnered with UL to create and obtain this listing on our cloth covered electrical wire. The only exception is our twisted-pair 2-conductor wire, which is not UL recognized.
  • Our SPT/Flat type cloth covered wire uses UL Listed wire but is not listed with the fabric covering.
  • Our wire is rated for small appliances and is suitable for pendant light applications and can be independently approved by inspectors.

As with any project involving electricity, please consult a licensed electrician to discuss what applications you are planning to use our products for.

Please note that our products are UL (ULus (USA) & cUL (Canada) recognized and have not gone through CSA testing. Feel free to contact us directly for more information in regards to UL and CSA.

How much weight will your pendant cords hold?

Our plug-in pendant cords are pulled force-tested and are rated at 2.5 kilograms or 5.5 pounds. Any shade or light fitting must not exceed this weight.

Our cord is SVT cable and is tested by force applied perpendicular to the direction of cable-outlet. The cable is subjected to a tension force of 30N and repeated 25 times. Each increment lasts 1 second. The displacement of the cable must not exceed 2mm to be approved.

Please note, for swag type situations for ceiling hook use, the hook must be properly mounted to the ceiling to support the weight. The pull force rating does not apply to how the swag hooks are mounted.

Our flush mounted fixtures can also safely hold a maximum weight of 5.5 pounds. Should your application exceed that weight, please contact our team for other options to increase the maximum weight load such as alternative strain reliefs and suspension cable systems, in addition to a local electrician who can be made familiar with your project.

Are your products compatible with a dimmer?

Yes, our fixtures are compatible with dimmer switches. You will want to make sure that the bulb and the dimmer switch work together. Our plug-ins do not have dimmer toggles, but you can look into a smart plug from an outside vendor to provide this functionality.
