An 18-inch steel downrod in brushed bronze, designed to lower your Matthews Atlas ceiling fan to the perfect height in rooms with soaring ceilings.
This downrod from Matthews Fan Company is a simple yet essential accessory for fine-tuning the installation of your Atlas ceiling fan. Crafted from durable steel with a brushed bronze finish, it blends seamlessly with your fan's aesthetic while providing the exact drop you need. Whether you're dealing with high ceilings or just want the fan closer to your living space, this downrod offers a reliable and stylish solution.
Best for
- Homes with 10-12 ft ceilings where a standard downrod leaves the fan too high for effective air circulation
- Living rooms, great rooms, and bedrooms with vaulted or cathedral ceilings
- Covered patios and verandas, as it's rated for wet locations and can handle direct exposure to rain and snow
- Matching your Atlas fan's brushed bronze finish for a cohesive look
- DIY installers looking for a field-cuttable, non-threaded downrod that's easy to work with
Not ideal for
- Rooms with very low ceilings (under 8 ft) where a flush mount or shorter downrod would be more appropriate
- Fans that require a threaded downrod connection
- Installations where you need a downrod longer than 18 inches
Style and finish
The brushed bronze finish offers a warm, earthy tone that adds a touch of sophistication to your ceiling fan. It pairs beautifully with wood blades and neutral color palettes, making it a versatile choice for both traditional and contemporary interiors.
