Default Ideas on Changing a Light Fixture in a Tall Foyer?

Ok, i need to change out a chandelier in a 2 story foyer. I have a 20
foot and a 32 foot extension ladder, but the foyer is too wide to
reach the middle where the fixture is attached to the ceiling with the
ladders leaning on the side walls.
Any ideas on how to safely reach the middle of the foyer to change out
the fixture?
Thanks in advance. jim


The usual procedure for a chandelier of this height is to install it so
that it can be lowered to a height where bulbs/candles can be changed.
Yes, the procedure is the same as when candles were the chandeliers main
illumination source.
