Can this light be hung on a sloped ceiling in any direction?
Definitely.
It really depends on the slope’s direction and how well it aligns with a shorter chain if the slope runs along the fixture’s length.
Of course
Oh yeah, I have the same fixture. Mine is hanging at an angle on a sloped ceiling. The chain links didn’t align perfectly, so I used steel wire on the top of one chain to level it out.

Alternatively, you can remove a few chain links from one side to even it out.
I tried that. However, due to the odd angle, it still hung lower on one side. I had to remove half a link from the right side to get it level. Ended up using steel wire to create the right-sized link.
That totally makes sense!
I faced the same problem but managed to fix it by adjusting the pieces the chain connects to. One end had to be as high as possible while the other had to be as low as possible. Sometimes, I even had to trim a chain link to ensure it sits level. You can usually play around with the bracket that supports the canopy and get around 1/4 inch or more of adjustment.
Yeah, if you’re good with math, definitely. And if you’re skilled at Jerry rigging things, then yes as well. But if you’re just hoping it’ll work without putting in the effort, then no haha
Sure, simply remove some links from one side
Yeah
Is it recommended?
The concept of gravity is truly amazing
Oh my goodness, cut me some slack.
Yep, since it’s hanging from a chain. As long as the incline provides sufficient space for the fixture
Were there any children of this individual who survived?
Just make sure to mount the base in a way that prevents the chains from being uneven due to the angle of the ceiling.
Yes, it’s definitely possible for those chains to work flawlessly.
Psh, whatever.
With sufficient funds, an electrician can install any light in any location
Absolutely not! This should only be installed under a kitchen sink, not over it, only under!
Yep
Sure thing, I just need to adjust the links to make it level.
Thumbs up if you’re good!
Is it possible for electricity to move up a sloped ceiling?
Is all about paying attention to the direction of the wood grains or checking if they applied two coats of paint on the sheet rock. Can you believe that? 😆
Just going down the slope. Electrons struggle to move against the current
Yup, adjust the links to lower either the right or left side
You might need to adjust the chains to level the fixture. Are you wondering if it levels itself? 😁
Release the chains and bend it again.
Definitely due to gravity
Definitely can. Just grab a six-pack of your favorite beer on your way back from Home Depot or Lowe’s, your call. Then chug at least 4 cans for a steady hand. Next, use your forehead to crush the cans – the empty ones are easier. Use these cans as makeshift shims. Safely climb down from the aluminum step ladder, finish the remaining drinks, and appreciate your handiwork. Looks good from where I’m standing… Ha ha ha…
Yep
Yup! This one was a bit tricky since each light needed to be adjusted. You just have to use different lengths of chain on each side. Trial and error until it’s level.
I recently put up that same light. Unfortunately, it looks pretty bad because the frame lacks support, causing it to lose its square shape.
Negative
Definitely, go ahead and keep in mind that safety is crucial as electricity can be dangerous
