Lighting Size & Installation Guide
Proper installation and sizing ensure your lighting functions safely and complements your space visually. Following correct placement guidelines improves both appearance and usability.
Fixture Height Guidelines
Pendant lights above tables or islands should typically hang 30 to 36 inches above the surface. This provides proper illumination without obstructing visibility.
Ceiling Fixture Placement
Flush and semi-flush fixtures should be centered within the room or aligned with architectural focal points such as tables or seating areas.
Wall Sconce Positioning
Wall sconces are generally installed between 60 and 72 inches from the floor, depending on ceiling height and purpose.
Installation Safety
We recommend installation by a licensed electrician. Proper installation ensures safety, compliance with electrical codes, and correct operation.
Weight and Ceiling Support
Ensure your ceiling junction box can support the fixture weight. Heavier chandeliers may require reinforced mounting.
