A 24-inch ceiling fan downrod in matte black steel, made to lower a fan to the right height in rooms with higher ceilings.
Part of Millennium Lighting's Ceiling Fan Downrods collection, this 24-inch rod is the simple fix when a fan hangs too close to the ceiling or needs to clear a beam. The matte black finish is a low-sheen, modern neutral that blends with most fan finishes, and the steel construction is built to hold a fan steady. It is slope-compatible, so it works on vaulted and angled ceilings as well as flat ones.
Best for
- Bedrooms and living rooms with ceilings higher than 9 ft, where a fan needs to drop closer to the seating area
- Dining rooms and kitchens where a fan must clear a table or island without crowding the ceiling
- Vaulted or sloped ceilings - the downrod is slope compatible
- Replacing a short factory downrod with a longer 24-inch drop
Not ideal for
- Standard 8 ft ceilings - a 24-inch downrod will hang the fan too low for safe clearance
- Fans that require a specific non-standard downrod diameter - this rod is 0.5 in wide
Style and finish
Matte black steel with a flat, low-gloss surface. It reads as traditional and works with farmhouse, industrial, and modern-fan styles without drawing attention to itself.
Materials and care
Constructed from steel. Wipe with a soft dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that can dull the matte finish. Care instructions not specified by manufacturer beyond routine dusting.
Sizing and fit
24 in long x 0.5 in wide x 0.5 in high, weighing about 0.84 lbs. Use it to extend a fan's drop on ceilings roughly 9 ft and taller, or to clear obstructions. Slope compatible for angled ceilings.
