hello,
I've got an ikea pendant lamp which needs to hand on a hook. I've got a hook on a plate which screws into the ceiling. But it looks like useing the hook plate would mean removing the existing ceiling rose base and cover and dealing with the wiring.
I'm not sure of the best way to proceed, Can I put the hook plate over the ceiling rose plate, or I might be able to put a small hook straight through the plastic base plate itself. Either would mean doing without the ceiling rose cover. Would this be safe? The pendant fitting does have a plastic cup which pushes against the ceiling. Or should I put a hook next the ceiling rose? There might be enough space inside the plastic ceiling cup for this. Or is it a case of removing everything fitting the ceiling hook and finding out how to wire it all up.
Any advice welcome.
Cheers.
