Abstract

A stabilizer for precluding periodic oscillating motion of a ceiling fan. The inventive device includes a ceiling engagement plate positionable against a portion of the ceiling. A fan alignment block is securable to the depending cylindrical support of the ceiling fan and engages the ceiling plate. A plurality of adjustment fasteners engaged to the alignment block can be selectively adjusted to engage the ceiling plate to preclude movement of the cylindrical support relative to the ceiling.
