This is a real pain as a bankers lamp with a broken shade is not worth having. Some people simply throw the lamp away (if it is a low-priced lamp) and get a new one, however, <strong>this is not necessary<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have the replacement glass available yet, I suggest you read my guide where I recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/thebankerslamp.com\/replacement-shade\/\">where to find the shade for your bankers lamp<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Replacing the glass shade is actually quite easy<\/strong>, and with some guidance, you can easily do it at home.

If it doesn\u2019t, the socket might be attached with an adhesive\/glue, making the job much harder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that some sockets don\u2019t have a set screw, but are still attached like a screw. To get a feel for what type of socket your lamp has, try turning it a bit to get a feel if its movable or completely firm. Keep in mind that the socket might be screwed on pretty tight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you suspect that the socket in your lamp is attached with an adhesive, and you bought it for less than 40-50 bucks, you might be better off buying a new lamp, as it complicates the process, and might require you to buy a new socket if the old one breaks when removing it, which might cause the price of repairing the lamp to equal the price of a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-what-you-need\"><strong>What you need<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s really not that many tools you need to replace your broken shade.

A useful tip before getting started is to do it on a bench\/table with enough space and put a white\/bright towel underneath to make the surface softer, as well as making it easier to keep track of your parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lamp socket is what holds the light bulb, and in your bankers lamp it has to be removed before you can remove the shade. These sockets usually come in 3 pieces, a 2 piece socket shell, and a single inner piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There might be some variation depending on the socket in your lamp, but on newer ones, the outermost part of the socket shell can usually be detached by turning it (like a screw). It goes without saying that you should remove the light bulb before this step :P.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The outermost piece might be hard to remove if it is attached firmly, but it should come off by applying some gentle force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your lamp has an older or vintage type socket, the outermost piece of the socket shell might not be screwed on, but attached with fittings, which are seen as small indentations. If this is the case with your lamp you can simply pull it off by applying gentle force while wiggling it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thebankerslamp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/6102wxJKDuL._SL1500_.jpg?resize=200%2C194&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-83\" style=\"width:449px;height:436px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thebankerslamp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/6102wxJKDuL._SL1500_.jpg?w=200&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thebankerslamp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/6102wxJKDuL._SL1500_.jpg?resize=150%2C146&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Removing the first piece will reveal the inner piece which is the part you screw the light bulb into. This is also the piece from which the pull chain switch comes out if your lamp is equipped with that. This is the piece that is connected to the lamp&#8217;s wiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 2 wires connected;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li id=\"htoc-the-hot-power-wire-whose-coating-is-often-black-or-red-which-is-attached-under-the-brass-gold-colored-screw1\">the hot\/power wire, whose coating is often black or red, which is attached under the brass\/gold colored screw.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li id=\"htoc-the-neutral-common-wire-whose-coating-is-usually-white-is-attached-to-the-silver-colored-screw1\">The neutral\/common wire, whose coating is usually white, is attached to the silver colored screw<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If your wiring doesn\u2019t have colors, you can feel the rubber linings and find the one that is ribbed, this is the neutral\/common.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"260\" height=\"197\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thebankerslamp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/71IPc411sKL._SL1500_.jpg?resize=260%2C197&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-81\" style=\"width:497px;height:377px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thebankerslamp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/71IPc411sKL._SL1500_.jpg?w=260&amp;ssl=1 260w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/thebankerslamp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/71IPc411sKL._SL1500_.jpg?resize=150%2C114&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>To access these screws and wiring easily, you can loosen the <strong>set screw<\/strong> which is located on the back end of the innermost socket piece with your screwdriver, which allows you to rotate the socket. In addition,&nbsp; you can pull the inner piece slightly outwards, as much as the wiring allows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your socket does not have a set screw, it might be that the socket is attached with an adhesive rather than as a screw, in which case it makes removing the socket much harder. You can try to detach it by screwing it back and forth\u2019s, breaking the adhesive material. This might, however, break the socket, meaning you have to replace it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note or write down which lead goes where and loosen the screws with your screwdriver until you can detach the wires, which allows you to remove the inner piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-step-2-remove-the-shade\"><strong>Step 2: Remove the shade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have loosened the set screw at the base of the socket, it should allow you to remove it from the base\/stand. After the socket, your lamp might have an additional retainer which you also have to remove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the opposite side of the shade, there is a nut which you can remove by turning it, keeping in mind that it might be fastened pretty tight (in which case a tool might come in handy). When doing so make sure you hold onto the shade so it doesn\u2019t tip downwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point the shade is loose, and all you have to do is remove the shade from the pipe that sticks through the hole in the shade on the side of the socket. Be <strong>CAREFUL<\/strong> as you don\u2019t want to be too rough, which can break the glass and cause you to cut your fingers\/hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-step-3-attach-grommets-and-the-new-glass-shade\"><strong>Step 3: Attach grommets and the new glass shade<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have the grommets from the broken shade, simply remove them and put them on the new shade, or use the ones you bought. Then carefully introduce your new shade to the base\/stand, by threading it onto the pipe at the side of the socket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, align the hole on the opposite side. During this step, you might have to carefully bend the stand\/base to get the shade in place. The brass\/metal pipes are usually soft enough to allow slight bending, but be careful not to use too much force so you bend them permanently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your lamps stand\/base is more firm, you might have to apply some force making it a bit harder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the shade is in the correct position, fasten it with the nuts\/retainers on both sides. When fastening, you want them to be finger tight, so the shade doesn\u2019t slip. Be careful not to tighten them too hard as this might put pressure on the glass and cause it to break\/crack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-step-4-reattach-the-socket\"><strong>Step 4: Reattach the socket<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve made it this far you are on the home stretch, which is to reattach the socket. There are just a few things to keep in mind while doing this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start off by reattaching the innermost piece of the socket shell to the stand\/base. Do not fasten the set screw, but keep it loose so that you can turn the socket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you have to reattach the inner piece to the electric wires. Before attaching them, twist the ends and slightly curve them so you can hook them around the screw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attach the hot (black or red) wire to the gold\/brass screw, and the common (white) wire to the silver screw. This is where the needle nose plier might come in handy, especially if you don\u2019t have much wiring to work with as you can hold the wire in place while fastening the screw with the screwdriver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you have to do now is to reattach the outermost piece of the socket shell and fasten the set screw. Keep in mind that you want to have the pull chain pointed downwards before fastening the set screw so that you don\u2019t have the pull-chain hanging at an angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"htoc-final-touch\"><strong>Final touch<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have successfully completed the 4th step, you should be set to screw in the light bulb and make the lamp shine again. If you are a bit of a tech guy, you might want to check the lamp for shorts at this point. You can do so by using a multimeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any comments or questions regarding this guide, or if there is any additional information you think people should know about when replacing their shade on a bankers lamp, please leave a comment in the comment section below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the few downsides of having a bankers lamp is that the glass shade can break if you are unlucky and tip it over.
