A 48-inch downrod from Matthews Fan Company, designed for Atlas ceiling fans, finished in brushed nickel.
This downrod extends the mounting height of your Atlas ceiling fan, allowing for optimal airflow and placement in rooms with high or sloped ceilings. The brushed nickel finish complements a variety of fan styles, and the stem is field cuttable for custom lengths. Built for durability, it is rated for damp locations, making it suitable for covered outdoor areas.
Best for
- Rooms with high ceilings (10 feet or more) where a standard downrod is too short.
- Sloped or vaulted ceilings, providing the necessary drop for proper fan placement.
- Covered patios and porches, thanks to its damp-rated construction.
- Replacing an existing downrod on an Atlas ceiling fan to adjust fan height.
Not ideal for
- Rooms with low ceilings (under 8 feet) where a flush mount or shorter downrod is needed.
- Uncovered outdoor areas exposed to direct rain, despite its damp rating.
- Fans from other brands, as this is specifically compatible with Atlas ceiling fans.
Style and finish
The brushed nickel finish offers a sleek, modern look that pairs well with contemporary and transitional decor. The metal construction ensures strength and longevity, while the neutral tone blends seamlessly with most fan finishes.
