  • Brand Dolan Designs Inc., of Portland, Ore.

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Dolan Designs is recalling 16 models of round ceiling-mounted light fixtures due to a fire and electric shock hazard. The socket wire insulation in these fixtures can degrade, exposing wires that become charged with electricity. This exposed electricity can pass to the metal canopy of the fixture, creating a risk of fire and electric shock to consumers. The recalled fixtures are 14 inches in diameter and 5.75 inches high with two sockets that take 75 watt bulbs, and they come in satin nickel, bronze, polished brass, antique brass, white, or bronze finishes with either a domed white or amber glass shade.

The affected models are 502-30, 522-09, 522-14, 522-18, 522-22, 522-30, 522-32, 522-60, 522-78, 5332-133, 5372-66, 5372-78, 5382-20, 5382-55, 5382-100, and 5392-20. The brand name and model number can be found on the inside of the fixture pan when the glass shade is removed. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fixtures and return them to the place of purchase for a free replacement, or contact Dolan Designs to schedule a free in-home repair.
