A 5-inch steel downrod in a Safira finish, designed to fine-tune the height of your Matthews Gerbar ceiling fan.
This short downrod from Matthews Fans offers a simple yet effective solution for installations where the fan needs to sit closer to the ceiling. Its compact size is perfect for low ceilings or for adjusting the fan's position without a major overhaul. The Safira finish complements a range of decor styles.
Best for
- Rooms with low ceilings (8 ft or less) where a longer downrod would make the fan hang too low.
- Sloped ceilings, thanks to its sloped ceiling compatibility.
- Covered or uncovered outdoor spaces, as it is rated for interior/exterior wet locations.
- Matching other Matthews Gerbar fans with the Safira finish for a cohesive look.
Not ideal for
- High ceilings (10 ft or more) that require a longer downrod to bring the fan down to an effective height.
- Installations requiring a threaded downrod, as this model is non-threaded.
