Streetlights Recalled by Beacon Products Due to Injury Hazard to Passersby

Reported: October 25, 2006 Initiated: October 25, 2006 #07017

Product Description

The pendant-style outdoor lighting fixtures were installed by municipalities and developers as subdivision and/or downtown urban streetlights. The lighting fixtures typically appear along sidewalks and smaller avenues. They are made of aluminum and sold in various colors. Some have glass covers. Recalled models include "Cambridge," "Capital," "Coal Miner," Depot," "F-10 Fitter," "F-13 Fitter," "F-21 Fitter," "F-35 Fitter," "Kings Park," "Magna," "Maritas," "Miramar," "Metropolis," "Neptune," "Pierwalk," "Radial Wave" and "Tivoli."

Reason for Recall

The lighting fixtures could fall from their lamp posts due to a problem with the coupling system used to secure them. This poses a risk of injury for persons beneath the lighting fixtures.

Remedy

Persons responsible for maintaining outdoor lighting fixtures or streetlights should immediately cordon off the area underneath each lighting fixture and contact Beacon to receive free retrofit kits. Beacon will also reimburse labor costs up to $50 per lighting fixture.
