A two-piece safety mechanism for ceiling-mounted fans comprises a first and second cable. The first cable has a first fastener extending from a first end and a first connector extending from a second end. The first fastener is for operable association with a first fastening mechanism for securing the first cable to a fan. The second cable has a second fastener extending from a first end. The second fastener is for operable association with a second fastening mechanism for securing the second cable to a ceiling support. The second cable also has a second connector extending from a second end, which is releaseably attachable to the first connector to form a continuous cable. The claimed invention also provides for a ceiling fan having the two-piece safety mechanism for retaining the fan in close proximity to the ceiling support if its normal mounting apparatus should fail.
