Step 5 · Install Mounting Bracket

The new chandelier will come with its own mounting bracket or crossbar. Align this bracket with the holes in the newly installed (or existing, if sufficient) electrical box. Use the screws provided with the mounting bracket to securely fasten it to the electrical box. Ensure the bracket is level and firmly attached, as it will support the weight of the chandelier.
