Adapter to offset a pull-cord switch

    Hello,

    I want to move a pull cord switch to offset it by approx 6 inches.

    The pull cord is currently situated too close to the door entry and it cannot be moved easily due to the flooring above and a RSJ blocking the ideal location for it.

    What I intend to do is 3D print a two piece stadium which ends have a radius matching the bottom face of the pull-cord switch. The bottom side will be screwed into the ceiling and the upper side will interface the pull cord with the lower side.
    The electrical cable will be connected into a terminal block strip as the cable would not have sufficient length for the full distance.


    Is there anything currently on the market that could be used or easily adapted to perform this task?
