Dumb question... How long is it? It looks like from the picture about 8''? I have about 4 & 1/2'' to work with. Can it be made shorter?

If you decide to cut it off I recommend using a power cut off saw that has a vise design-----its about 8 inches is correct. These saws have various blades that can be attached and do a perfect job to cut metal off straight and even--minor filing may be required so as to have no sharp edges that result from using the cutoff blade.

It is 5 3/4" long. It can be shortened by using a hacksaw secured in a vise.

It's 5 3/4 inch long screw mounts 3 1/4 you could not cut it down from one end. This item would take skill to do a good looking finished job.

It is manufactured at 5 3/4 inches long. I cut 1 inch off of each end, making it 3 3/4 inches long. I cut it off using a cutoff saw, so nice and clean and straight. Had to then paint the bare aluminum ends.

No dumb questions my friend. It's just under 5.75 inches long. You could shorten it some but I'm not sure how that will look. You could try two of the smaller 2" long risers.

I have it hanging at the full length of the cord. I did measure the shade and the metal part that is tightened against the ceiling and would estimate that you should be able to shorten it to about 10 inches if you can wind the cord inside the ceiling and it did appear , when I installed mine, to be room to do that.

The stand can be used much shorter that the pic shown, i think the picture is showing it extended up all the way to show how high it will go, hope this helps

Hello. It is about 3/4" long and it may stick out about 1/4". It doesn't get in the way of anything else.

It is extendable and adjustable with bolt holes in the vertical tube. Just remove bolts put in the correct position and replace bolts. There is an additional piece to make it longer although I am not sure it will get to 6 1/2. Honestly if it doesn't go that long, a little creativity and a trip to the hardware store would do the trick. It is a very simple mechanism

The length of the unit is 8". The width is around 4". You can check the dimensions via Internet. So probably you have to modify it.

No it cannot be made shorter, but if you have the height this is a great addition to any room. I love mine!

I do not see how you would modify the kit as all the brackets are pre drilled. It would be possible to reduce the length, but you may have to drill some new holes in the brackets. I like the product, however. There are similar products that are shorter. I plan on getting a second, but I found another one of these that is only six feet long and not eight. I would guy that one.

No. It's a little small I tried to do the same thing and it didn't work. I think it's 3/4"

the middle pipe length is 8-9 inches. they stretched the hinged joints strait our flat to make 12 inches. Of course you don't use it that way. Was a little misleading

Not sure. Already sold this to a buddy, i would not want to take it apart anyway. my guess is 15 inches

Interesting that the previous answer lists 4 1/4 inch, as mine is exactly 4 1/2 inch...triple checked. Apparently, the length can vary.

It's 6ft, so if you have a short bed (5ft) then it's too long. I too have a short bed and just trimmed off the excess and used it in the bottom of my tool box. :) works great and doubled the value personally.

Looks to be about 13 & 1/4 " from our measure- can't say that's exact though.. I also checked the manual and didn't see anything in there about it. Hope that helps.

The height is 8.2 inches. It's possible to make it shorter by removing the rubber feet.
