How to remove ceiling light cover - 2 main types 

Well I guess I’m screwed then. Mine has zero clamps.

Thanks!!! The light cover I had had four clamps and two were springloaded. No way I would have found that out myself.

Thanks save my life. I have no idea how to do it

Thanks for the great video, don't understand why such poor design could be so popular....

Hiya, I have a three prong light fixture and I tried to pull each one to see which was was the spring but none of them budged. What kind of lubricant can I use without endangering myself or setting myself up for a flammable situation? I have WD40 and a small bottle of mineral oil. What should I do to sort this out?

Just brilliant, thanks. I have glass covered light on a wall and have been wondering how to get the cover off, I’ll give your idea a try, it might work on that as well. Thanks Bill, love all the help you give 😃

This video was exactly what I needed, thank you!

Ohmygod. One is spring loaded?!!! Sheesh, I’ve just stopped using the overhead light and just use the sconce…..for years… but now I’m fixin to paint the bathroom, so, thank you so much. NOW I CAN CHANGE THE BULB AND CLEAN THE GLASS!!!! 😬🙏🏽

Thank you so very much for taking the time to make this video! It worked like a charm!

Thanks, Bill! I went from very pissed at sadistic fixture designers to, um, not so pissed

my saviour! i've been trying to lever those clips up this whole time, wasn't looking forward to a winter without a working light over the sink. Legend!

Very insightful thank you for the detailed explanation!

Thank you so much! It truly helped!

Thank you for your video, I was really stuck on that spring removal part.

Thank you sooo much, this video saved me a lot of trouble 🙏

thanks now I'll look like I know what I'm doing 😂

Thanks! Talk about being a lot easier than I was expecting.

Should do a video on how to patch downlight holes! 😁

Hey guys my ceiling lights have absolutely no springs or bolts or nuts or ANYTHING AT ALL.... Does anyone know of a secret to remove the covers to the lights?

Talk about timing I've! I've lived in a rental for 7 years and we've never been able to get it off. It turns but nothing happens. It's different to these two you showed though. Now we are moving in a month

I've got a three clip fixture and the clip that moves should pull out far enough to release the fixture, but it doesn't pull back far enough. I'm one inch away from smashing it with a hammer.

OMG Thank you so much!!!

Your videos are always so helpful. Thank you for taking the time to make them. Makes everything so much easier.

Thanks, very helpful advice. What brand/mode is the first example? I have this one and broke the cover, so I would like to replace it, or the whole unit. Thanks

Awesome. I just moved into our place and had no idea. Cheers Bill!

What causes a bulb to flicker in a ceiling fixture? Changed the bulb, made sure it’s a dimmable bulb, but it still flickers. Arcing?

Lifesaver thanks. Had no idea how the spring loaded one worked 😅

Ahh! Thank you 🙏!!!

Genius, thank you for the tips! I subscribed !!

Thanks for this video🎉🎉🎉

Champion, here in 2023 🤝🏾

the way he says 'lets do this' is super satisfying lol

Wish I knew how to remove ours lol. I can move it enough to replace a bulb but have no idea how to remove the glass to clean it. 🤣

Thank you so much for your help

Good to know. Thanks Bill 👍👍👍

Thank you so much.....!!!!

Worked for me!

Amazing - wish I had seen this before - I broke the spring loaded clip - I suppose it was weakened - can one replace the clip and how? 🙏🏽

thanks! :)

Thank you!

Soo good 👍 👍👍

Mate you’re a bloody legend aye was literally looking at replacing my oyster lights today and here you are again!

Champion 🤌🤌
