Do the bulbs have to be installed from the top? The space we are putting it in does not allow enough room to do this.

No the bulb can be installed by carefully removing the plastic lense. You can carefull unsnap the plastic lense and install new bulbs. I hope this helps

Hello. What do you mean from the top? The part of the cabinet that holds the light bulbs is the horizontal piece above the doors. It is all one piece.

Yes. This is my 2nd fixture. To let you know I wouldn't try to squeeze plastic shade to try to get it in. Over time the plastic gets brittle from the light bulb heat and can crack. The fixture is very light, and the mounting holes are slotted. You could easily drop the fixture down to change.

Yes. The frosted Lens cover also has to be installed from the top, so you cant lift it to get to the bulbs that way either. also your cant install the cabinet to close to the ceiling because the bulbs get warm and cant vent. You will end up melting the Lens

They can be installed from the front you would have to remove the light screen, i think that can be done rather easy but i would allow enough room so heat build up would not be a problem

Its convenient to install it from the top, but you can definitely remove the light screen from the front and install the bulb through the opening.

Yes the bulbs are inside you have to install it ; it has wires my carpenter installed mine.

No I wouldn't recommend that at all unless you can figure out a mounting method. The stand is really my only complaint - it's really cheap. I also bought a set of bulbs that do the same thing and put them in my ceiling fan. That worked awesome! Might be a solution to your needs. Light is good, stand sucks! :)

Some of the brighest LED bulbs are very large and won't fit in certain enclosures. I've just added a customer image showing exactly this scenario. It should be visible above soon.

The bulbs required are a little slim, so whatever you buy will need to be slim enough to fit. It takes two bulbs. This light is awesome though, I love not having to think about switching the light on in the hallway in our house.

Yes, they can, and what's nice is the top inch will hang out and light up the whole room. (Unless you use your recessed as spot lights then they will not work that way.)

The screws that hold the light bulbs are already on the fixtures. You have to unscrew them to put the light bulbs in.

Yes. All typical house style bulbs will fit in this fixture from incandescent to CFL, and even new LED. They screw in the typical lightbulb way, and then you install the class dome (which can be seen in the picture) over the bulb.

I am no expert, but yes, you can switch out the bulbs, just make sure that they fit the proper dimensions.

There isn't a lot of room for standard bulbs. If you don't want to bend the metal brackets holding the bulbs, you can use LED corn bulbs like these: http://smile.amazon.com/Generic-27x5050-300LM-2800-3200K-White/dp/B00ANI1Q9S/ref=sr_1_37?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1405191333&sr=1-37&keywords=led+bulb. They are highly energy efficient, long lasting, don't produce a lot of heat, and most importantly, they fit.

No. You would need significantly more light. I would suggest (2) 4-foot bulbs at the very minimum...

youd have to do some macgyvering to get that to work. i assume the bulbs upside down. i supose u could if it hangs on a chord but it would look kind of ghetto. plus youd have to make sure the bulb doesnt touch the shade. good luck with that one.

None that I am aware of at present. I installed my Full Spectrum Light Bulbs (ALZO 45W CFL) in light sockets without a globe or shade (not my original plan). Used in this fashion they throw a lot of light as long as you aren't too concerned about appearances.One is mounted horizontally and another vertically. Both have been in service since the beginning of this year without any problem.

What do you mean by an enclosed fixture? Though i don't see why not. I've been replacing the bulbs in my house and others because of the lower power use/heat generation. Low energy bulbs are saving me tons of money. Since there is far less heat generation I don't see why this would be an issue.

Hi Nana! It is a beautiful lamp. I don't see any reason those bulbs wouldn't fit. But, get the smaller ones, and the plug-in dimmer thing if you want 3-way.

Mine is a couple of feet away from me and a little above. I have had mine almost 2 years no need to replace bulbs yet.

I would say no....you would have to unscrew the bottom plate to change the bulbs.
