Where to Use Fabric Flex?
Pendant Lighting
Create stunning drop lights where the cable is a visible design feature. Perfect for high ceilings and kitchen islands.
Vintage Restorations
Replace dangerous, brittle wiring in antique lamps with period-correct fabric flex that meets modern safety standards.
Industrial Swagging
Use cable hooks to "swag" lights from the canopy to different areas of the room, creating an exposed, loft-style look.
Multi-Drop Chandeliers
Bundle multiple cables together to create spider lights or cluster pendants for a dramatic focal point.
- Professional Install: All electrical work should comply with BS 7671 IEE Wiring Regulations. If unsure, hire a qualified electrician.
- Strain Relief: Always use cable grips (cord grips) at both the ceiling rose and lamp holder to prevent strain on the electrical connections.
- Preparation: When stripping fabric cable, use a small piece of tape around the cut area to prevent the fabric braid from fraying.
- Testing: Always test connections with a multimeter before switching the mains power back on.
