REAVIS, Justice.

By three points of error, appellants Chubb Group of Insurance Co., Donald Holden, and Mary Holden (Chubb/Holden) appeal from a summary judgment rendered upon the motion of Capri Lighting, Inc. and Thomas Industries, Inc. (Capri and Thomas), alleging that Capri and Thomas have no liability for damages resulting from a fire caused by an allegedly defective light fixture manufactured by Capri Manufacturing Company, an operating division of BAS, a California corporation. Based on the rationale expressed, we will overrule the points of error and affirm the summary judgment.
