Floor lamp connection loose.

1 is a lily of the valley design and the other is a lustre lamp both with night light sockets to them. Unfortunately many floor lamps tend to lean over time because the pole s grip loosens and sags to one side. Table lamps are essentially decorative elements and a light fixture threaded onto a long metal rod with a nut at the bottom. Floor lamps take up little floor space yet shine a good deal of light where most needed.

For many people a sagging or leaning floor lamp means it is time to buy a new one. If not take it apart again and proceed with the following steps. It looks like the base section has screw threads that are stripped so it leans over and falls apart if you try to pick it up to move it. Once you understand the simple construction of a table lamp it is very easy to repair the wobbly lamp.

Floor lamp loose at base. Is this a good question. Over time and repeated touching from turning it on and off parts of the lamp may become loose causing. I have 2 electric aladdin table lamps that belonged to my grandparents.

If the lamp works after you tighten up the screws great. Yes this is a quick fix and since there are some affordable floor lamps available it can easily be done without worrying about your budget. Loose screws may have been the lamp s only problem. With normal use the mechanical connections in a table lamp can loosen causing the lamp to lean or to become wobbly.
