Maxim Lighting FRD24BK-MA Black 24" Down Rod For Ceiling Fan

Adjust Your Fan's Drop with the Maxim Lighting 24-Inch Down Rod

The FRD24BK-MA from Maxim Lighting is a 24-inch black down rod designed to extend the mounting height of compatible ceiling fans. It is suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor damp locations. Key features include a matte black finish and 24-inch length for adjusting drop height.

Key Features and Benefits of This Down Rod

The 24-inch length lets installers set a fan lower from a tall ceiling, which matters for airflow since fans work best hung 8 to 9 feet above the floor. Its matte black finish is designed to match Maxim's Tanker fan series for a cohesive look.

Where to Use the FRD24BK-MA Down Rod

This rod suits homes with tall or vaulted ceilings where a flush-mount fan would sit too high to move air effectively. It is compatible with damp-rated fan installations, including covered porches or three-season rooms.

Installation and Compatibility Checks

This down rod is designed specifically for Maxim Lighting's Tanker ceiling fan series and is not a universal fit. Confirm your Tanker fan model and ceiling height before ordering to select the correct rod length for proper clearance.

Additional Buying Context

It is also available in a matching Satin Nickel finish for buyers with different Tanker fan finishes. Choosing the down rod at purchase time avoids a second shipment later when finalizing fan height for a specific room.
