My ceiling is about 12ft high! I'm thinking even with the extensions thats too high. Any insight into how to remedy this?

Ooh, that's tough. The pole definitely won't extend to 12ft - maybe 10 or so. As it's pressure mounted, you'd have to build something to decrease that distance. Maybe something like a small stage on the floor? That or a block of some type on the ceiling though it would be hard to make it stable enough...

You will have to buy a longer extension, you can also put multiple extensions on at one time.

My ceiling is high also, you will need to hard brace the top to lock it in.

I guess it depends on how tall your ceilings are. I started mine at the top of my 6" baseboard and it extends up 7 1/2 feet. I have another 6" before it touches the bottom of the 6" crown molding. I have 9' ceilings in the area where I put it. Believe them when they say that you should overlap the pieces just a bit. I had a little shrinkage on one branch but can hide it with a picture frame.

Hello. it's been awhile so we can't remember if the unit came with (2) 12" extensions, or (3). The top cover drops about 1.5". We have standard 8' ceilings so we used the cover + (2) extensions for a total drop of 39.5" to the bottom of the fixture which we have above a kitchen table. I looked around for the possible 3rd extension but couldn't find it..probably thrown away with the box. Hope ths helps.

I used a 24 inch extension and than felt it was to long thus went with a 12 inch. I do not see why it would not work but you may have to add wiring if you are going to drop 3 feet from ceiling, Fan is quiet and also does not vibrate thus I can not see why it would not work,

We too have a 10' ceiling and ours comes down about a foot. If I had the option, I'd probably bring it down another 6" or so, but it does just fine up there. It's a nice piece.

My husband is 6'2" - our ceiling is 8' - he says it works but he is always conscious of the ceiling being so close. It may be even closer with your ceiling at 7'8".

A 10' ceiling is too high in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendation. Thank you.

I saw no way to shorten the cords. Our ceiling height is the standard, it was built in 1986. We have this fixture above a table and it poses no problem for us to eat beneath it. Hope that helps.

Hi, I also have high ceilings. I have the chain fully extended and the light is beautiful. I love it!

I had a problem with then because the holes don't line up with the extensions, so you probably will have to drill holes in them, that's what I did...Hope this is helpful for you....

I think you would be fine with no extension. I also have high ceilings. Plus in the box you already get an extension. I did not use it.

There are 3 sets of extenders you can use, each one about 12 inches I believe. That would make the total height from the ceiling to the top of the shade about 36 inches.

Love this but can you make it shorter I need maybe like 16 inches from ceiling to bottom is this possible??? Thank you so much for your help.

Since the ceiling support rod that comes with the package wasn't adjustable besides the standard height, I had to also go to the local hardware store and purchase a new one. I bought one that was fully threaded and matched up the pieces to get the right diameter. You should be able to buy a fairly long rod if you choose to solve the problem this way and just switch out the standard rod with a new one.

I think it states 7-10 foot ceiling. I have a 8 and 10 foot ceiling and both poles fit perfect. Contact seller on your 12 foot ceiling.

I adjusted the height of my tube. I cut the threaded insert down to about 1 inch and completely removed the pole. This allows the light to sit close to the ceiling, but not flush, that way light can go up onto the ceiling. I posted pictures of this on my review.

I don't know the highest ceiling we have done so far is 10'. I would contact manufacturer
