The Chanukah Menorah has to be lit in the correct place. If the need arises, one can then move it.
If the Menorah was lit too high, too low or in a location where the wind will extinguish it, and was subsequently moved, one has not fulfilled one's obligation. One needs to extinguish it and light it again, but without the Brachot.
The lights on the Chanukah Menorah must be at least 3 Tefachim (24 cm. - 10") above the floor.
The Chanukah Menorah must be no higher than 20 Amos (10 m. - 33 ft. ) from the floor.
