The metal lamp guard by Newhouse Lighting is built with 16-Gauge vinyl coated metal wiring. With its adjustable screw tightening clamp, the lamp guard fits virtually all string lights, porcelain and plastic lamp holders, pendant light fixtures, ceiling fan light covers, and can even be used as small lamp shades. These metal lamp guards are also very popular for decorations in urban settings, especially when combined with Edison style filament light bulbs. In addition to the aesthetic benefits, these functional lamp guards are also a great glass bulb and lamps protector when installed in basements, work sites, globe fixtures, fans, and exposed ceiling covers.
