Would it be possible to hang this light on a metal headboard?

Unlike the other person who answered, my lamp seemed sturdy and pretty well made. My bed is an antique iron (metal) about 2 & 1/4 in. diameter. The hooks that hold the lamp are coated with plastic which makes is non-slip. It took a little careful adjusting with a pair of pliers but I made it work. So, I would say yes, it will work on a metal headboard.

I would like to say yes, however...the unit I received was so poorly constructed that I would hesitate providing any type of electrical conductor for this thing. Will it actually hang there? Yes. Should you do it? Probably not. I have a solid wood headboard. There were small sparks from the unit when the chain was pulled. Wood is an insulator, metal is a conductor. My unit now resides in the local landfill.

That is a good idea. How about having someone weld a base the light would fit in and not fall out of, then mount the base on the posts?

Absolutely! This light includes field-cuttable cord allowing you to hang the light at your desired height.Thanks for your question.

Yes it can. Each light comes with an assortment of different sized rods for customizing the height in which you want to hang the light.

I rebuilt a hanging lamp with this setup. It should be fine. It's got one of those roller switches on it if you're ok with those.

I have my light hanging from the internal metal frame. Have the adjustable hanging straps. Works good.

The light fixture hangs from the ceiling. A flush mount would hug the ceiling.

There are a couple of *tiny* little holes at the top of the plastic bracket. You'd need a needle small 's' hook or something like that and a string or chain to hang it from... but sure, it's possible.

I think you could try Velcro to mount the light to the wall. With the batteries, the light has a little weight to it.

I think so. Lamp switch would have to stay on high setting. And of course body would have to be metal.

The bottom of the pull chain hangs down at about 3'9'' off the ground, 3'' from the bottom of the light. Depending on the height of your bed, and assuming it's right next to your bed, you could.

My gf has not finished it yet since we have been traveling. We would also be interested in hanging it with a back light as well.

No. There is a small hole on each side of the light. I had to buy some wire to run through the holes to hang it.

Sure, I hung mine using thin stainless steel cable. No worries, you just need to be creative on attaching them. BTW, these lights failed after about 6 months.

Yes you can hang anything from a track if you're willing to rewire for a track connection. But why would you do that? The whole point of this light fixture is to give it an industrial YET old fashioned look.

No, it cannot be installed as a hanging light. The base must be flush mounted

I would say no, but I mounted it on the top of the frame, with 2 little pieces of wood mounted on the frame itself. The reason is that the U neck of the light cannot rotate more than a quarter turn on both sides. I didn't forced it further, it would have broke. I also add that the light is very cold white, and I would have loved warmer white...
