How to Install a Wall Sconce in a Stairwell · Step 9 of 10
In this video
If your fixture has a ring clip to hold the glass shade, remove it. Screw a new light bulb into the socket of the installed sconce. Flip the circuit breaker back to the 'ON' position to restore power. Test the sconce by turning on its wall switch (if applicable) to ensure it lights up. If the light does not turn on, troubleshoot by checking the wall switch, trying a different light bulb (it might be faulty), or re-checking the wire connections after turning the power off again. Once the light is confirmed working, turn off the power at the breaker, remove the light bulb, carefully place the glass shade (globe) over the socket, and secure it with the ring clip. Finally, re-insert the light bulb.
