How to remove flush mount ceiling light cover?
To remove the flush mount ceiling light cover, consult a licensed electrician. This will prevent electrical shock and other serious injury. The steps below are steps the electrician will follow to do the removal.
- First, the electrician will turn off the power to the circuit breaker.
- Then, they gather the required tools, including screwdriver, ladder and gloves. Next, they will get on the ladder to reach the light fixture.
- The electrician then examines the light fixture and determines if the cover is held on by screws, clips or the twist-lock mechanism.
- If screws are holding the flush mount in place, the electrician unscrews them and puts them in a safe place.
- If a cover is holding the mount in place, the electrician will push or pull the clips so the cover will come off.
- If the cover is held on by the twist-lock method, then the electrician turns it clockwise to release it.
- Once the cover is removed, the electrician can either remove the light bulb or do any other maintenance that is needed.
