Welcome to our Community Q&A page for Pool Table Light.

I know the height and have everything ready to go...my only question is how to physically mount it to the ceiling...what hardware to use okay, where the light will currently line up, one side of it will go into the stud/joist, but the other side currently goes into the drywall. I do not have an attic (houses in vegas don't like them for some reason) and I cannot get into the attic to assist. Knowing that, on the side where it is mounted on the drywall, how would you mount it?

30'X15': So long and skinny. Floors are light hardwood, pool table is dark stained, room is white right now and there is a west facing plate glass window. Not sure what color would help bring out the hardwood floors and table the best, everything else in the room can be changed. Also thinking about doing crown molding, any suggestions?

i have a pool table and you can throw a table tennis table over it what is the best lighting system because at the moment i have an over head one which is close to the pool yable so it is no good for table tennis and up high it is not bright enough any suggestions

i have checked home depot,wal-mart,and searched the net,no luck!!!all sizes seem to be available,but the one i need!from 12" to 48".two prongs on each end,dont care about the watts.light holds one bulb on each side.

I need to ship a box 51x33x17 inches to The Neatherlands from Canada and am getting quotes from DHL, FedEx and UPS for $600+. At present I'm thinking of having it shipped from the US via FedEx for $440 but I'd like to ship it from Canada and I don't mind if it goes by boat. Any suggestions for who might offer this type of service?

Sparky, I love that idea. I will do all you have said but to make it more decorative I am wondering if I cut out the sides of the wooden pieces to make framed openings then get some plexaglass and maybe simulate stained glass? with paint or decals or something. thanks for any and all suggestions!

what i would really like to find is a number 14 light.

I am hanging lights above my pool table, and I am not sure how low they should hang from the table. Any suggestions? Or is there a regulation height from the table to the light?

its length is 46" and 12" high and hangs with gold chains..excellent condition and very beautiful..i know there a rare find.

I am wanting to buy my dad a new swag pool table light for Christmas because the one he had for nearly 20 years finally bit the dust. Having trouble finding a swag light. Most are hanging lights that I will have to wire into the ceiling, or have beer logos, which he hates. I found one I think he would be happy with, and it says it will plug in instead of hard wire if you have the proper adapter. I just don't know what kind of adapter we're talking about here. I found a "swag light kit" and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this is what I need to keep from having to install it into the ceiling. And if not, what kind of adapter do I need to look for?

Throwing a Vegas theme surprise birthday party and need help with decor ideas, lights and invites. It has to be ultra glam, and not in the least tacky. Cannot work with mirrors, posters, cutouts or pictures. Have three poker tables and one pool table at hand. Should we serve sheesha/hukkah or no? How should the lights be? And the seating? There can be no balloons, no hangings, nothing. Should there be a smoke machine? The place booked has a red carpet though. And the invites are a major problem since we need to convey there its a vegas themed party with an open bar without mentioning anything at all on the invites. Invites need to be sexy and classy. Indecisive and muddled. Help.

Any other companies who might have traditional down lights for a cottage Kitchen (not looking to pay the earth)

Those traditional incandescent light bulbs are still good, but waste electricity. Its seems a shame to waste them, and I don't want to encourage other people to keep on using them by giving them away.

My apartment formerly had traditional track lighting, but now all that's left is a live end connector sticking out of the wall (not sure if it's H, J, or L standard); even the track itself is gone. I'm thinking of purchasing Ikea's "Termosfar" track lighting system to use at the same location but am not sure how to figure out what additional parts will be needed to install the low-voltage Ikea system into the existing infrastructure. Help! :-)

do blinking christmas lights save money over "always on" traditional lights? Is it possible that it takes more energy during the initial lighting up process?

I debating whether to get a 18" solar tube in my kitchen/dining room that is rated to provide about the equivalent of 10 100watt light bulbs OR getting a 2X4 traditional skylight cut out. Which will provide me more light? The traditional skylight is about double the solar tubes.

there is nothing for teens 14-19 to do where i live, and when i was one a few years ago i loved things like this. but they were all managed by the wrong people (alcohol or money laundering). the popluation is around 26,000 with around 90,000 in the county. i have a few police officer friends which could provide off duty security. i would provide non-alco specialty drinks, food, music, lights, lounge area, pool tables, among other things. i have friends with siblings still in high school that could advertise for me. there would be a very strict set of rules to follow or be kicked out. if security believes your intoxicated your out. i need a parents view on this and teens view. everyone so far has been all for it any questions ask muskingum co. ohio

I'm having a house party of around 50 friends from ages 18-23 both guys and girls (obviously). i have a ping pong table, pool table, and built-in-the-ground hot tub (should i open hot tub?). I know I have to buy a whole load of liqueur. Do you have any suggestions? Music is trance- like Basshunter, DJ Playboy, Megara, DJ Splash, eTron, Scarf! I have faerie lights, excellent big speakers, and a wide open space. What kind of stores sell those lights that make everything slow motion, and other colored party lights? I've already handed out really cool invitations.

I'm going to make a spinning pool table for my major work in year 12. I have a few questions to ask just before I go ahead with the design. Firstly, are there any other lighter bases I could use that wouldn't warp, preferable possible order to size. Secondly, What material should I use as an axel. I was thinking a steel rod attached to the inner playing area and base which will spin on 2 holes on the frame. And finally, What are some nice strong hardwoods that wont bend or break that I can use for the frame, I will either have to add metal bars to support the frame or get some sort of REALLY strong wood because im expecting the inside part to weight up to 400-500KG. Anything you can help with is much appreciated

I have a contemporary bedroom that has black furniture, white bedding, and light blue walls. What are some cool accessories that I could use to complement those colors? Also, I already have some natural-looking things like bamboo plants and some mini cacti. Anything along those lines?
