How Do We Assemble Our Demounted Lamps? How Do We Make the Electrical Connection of Lamps Requiring Cable Connection?
We have 2 lamp types with different cable connections. The first type of lamp is our Table and Floor Lamps, and the second type is our Wall and Ceiling lamps.
Electrical Connection of Table and Floor Lamps:
Since the electrical power input of our table and floor lamps is provided with a plug, no additional electrical connection is required. Just plug it in and start using it.
Electrical Connection of Wall and Ceiling Lamps:
Wall and ceiling lamps are types of fixed lamps. In other words, it is mounted at any point in your home and is constantly used here. For this reason, the electrical connection must be directly connected to the building installation.
Cable Connection: Two wires come out from the top of the lamp, one is blue and the other is brown. The blue wire is the Neutral wire, the brown wire is the power wire. After connecting these two wires to the electrical line in your ceiling, you can start using your lamp. Blue cable and Brown cable is a standard all over the world. However, sometimes the masters who make the electrical installation of the building may have used different colors of cables without considering this standard. In such cases, your electrician should use the electric control pen to determine which of the cables with different colors is neutral and which is the power cable before installation.
Metal Mounting of the Lamp to the Wall or Ceiling of the House: Table and Floor lamps are not fixed lamps, they are traveling lamps. It cannot be mounted anywhere. But Wall lamps and Ceiling lamps need to be screwed and fixed where they will be used.
Metal Wall Mounting of Wall Lamps: Some of our wall lamps have a mounting plate located behind the lamp. There are holes on this mounting plate to be screwed into the wall. First screw this plate to the wall. Then mount your lamp on this fixed plate. Some of our wall lamps have hanging hooks on the wall. It is enough to hang these lamps on a screw on the wall, just like a painting.
Metal Ceiling Mounting of Ceiling Lights: We always attach a hanger hook on the part of our ceiling lights that sticks to the ceiling. You also need to screw a hook that looks like a question mark (?) with a drill to the place where you will attach your lamp. After the hook is mounted on the ceiling, it is sufficient to attach the hanger hook at the top of our lamp to the hook you have mounted on the ceiling. Then you make the cable connection. There is a cover on the top of our lamp to hide the cables. By pushing this cover over the cables, you can hide the cables and start using your lamp immediately.
Sizing Details
We write the lamp dimensions in CM in the upper left corner of the photos of all lamps. In addition, we write the width, height and depth of the lamp in detail in the product descriptions section.
Calculating CM to INCH measurement unit: You can learn inch measurements by doing a very simple multiplication with a calculator to convert the centimeter measurement unit written in the product detail to the INCH measurement unit. For this, it is appropriate to multiply the measurement given in centimeters by the number 0.394. Thus, you will learn the inch size of the lamp.
For example; 35 cm x 0.394 = 13.79 inches
Care instructions
Our products can be easily wiped with a slightly wet cloth or a dry cloth and dust can be removed. Make sure that the power of your lamp is turned off when wiping it with only a wet cloth. Also, never use a very wet cloth. After wiping with a slightly wet cloth, wait for an average of 15 minutes to dry.
Gift wrapping and packaging
We wrap our products in bubble-wrap bags and foam if necessary, and put them in a standard cargo box. Since our products are mostly large products, a special gift wrapping is made. However, we write a gift card and put it in the product with an envelope. For this reason, if you want to print a gift message, you can write your gift message when ordering.
Do You Produce Customized Lamp? Are you producing a Model that is not available on your website?
The answer to this question of yours is yes.
Making lamps is like an art for us. Since we produce all of our products handmade in our workshop, we can make any changes you want on the lamp.
Explanation of the changes we made with examples:
- The color of the sphere attached to our lamp model, whose photo you see, is red, but do you want this sphere blue? Yes we do this for you Blue.
- There are 3 spheres in our lamp whose photo you see and you like very much, but do you want it to have 4 or 5 spheres? Yes, we can increase or decrease the number of spheres as much as you want.
- The height of an example lamp is 125 cm. But do you want it to be a little shorter because your ceiling is low? Yes, we can adjust the length or shortness of the lamps as you wish.
NOTE: Additional charges were required to increase the length of the lamp. But these fees are not very high. For example, there is a $5 surcharge to extend the length of a single-sphere ceiling lamp by 1 metre.
- Have you seen a photo of a mosaic Turkish lamp somewhere, but couldn't find a place to buy it online? Don't worry, send the photo to us via our email address on our contact page, and we'll custom-make this lamp for you.
