How to Set Up a Pool Table Light

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name's Joe, and I'm here at Breaktime Billiards in Wilmington, North Carolina. Today we're going to talk about how to hang a pool table light for your table. If you're doing this at home, you'll probably have to go into your attic and put some braces between your joists so that you'll have something to hook the eye bolts up to for the top of your chain. Once you've done this and you've, you come down into your living room or rec room or wherever you're going to put the table. And you put your eye bolts in. Your light has to be centered over the table and according to the World Pool Association, it's not supposed to be lower than forty inches from the table. Once you determine that it's centered and that where it's going to be in, in the height from the table, you will secure the ends of your chain to each end of the light. Once you've done this, it's just a matter of flipping on the light and you're ready to play."
