Frequently Asked Questions

Should hallway lights be warm or cool?

The color temperature of hallway lighting depends on the rest of your home's style. Contemporary looks fit best with cool temperatures, while more traditional homes are best complemented by warm temperatures. However, a range of 3000-4000 K should be ideal for most homes.

Should hallway lights match?

Yes, your hallway lights should match. For example, if you use sconces, use the same sconce finish throughout the hallway.

Can hallway lights be used to enhance decor?

Absolutely! Hallway lights can be both functional and decorative. Consider using statement fixtures like chandeliers or pendant lights in larger hallways to create a focal point, or opt for sconces that add character and style.

How should I position lights in a long hallway?

In long hallways, it’s best to place lights evenly spaced along the length of the hallway. This avoids dark spots and ensures consistent illumination throughout.

What styles of hallway lights are trending?

Modern and minimalist designs are popular, featuring clean lines and sleek finishes. However, vintage and industrial styles are also trending, offering a unique and personalized touch to your hallway decor.

How bright should a hallway light be?

In general, you need 5-10 lumens per square foot of your hallway. Go for the higher end of the spectrum if your hallway has high ceilings or dark colors.

What type of lighting is best for hallways?

For hallways, ambient lighting is key to ensuring safe passage and highlighting the space. Recessed lights, flush mounts, and wall sconces are popular choices, as they provide consistent illumination without overwhelming the space.

How do I choose the right size light fixture for my hallway?

The size of the fixture should be proportional to the hallway. For narrower hallways, opt for flush or semi-flush mounts. In wider hallways, larger or more decorative fixtures can add elegance without overwhelming the space.

Are motion sensor lights suitable for hallways?

Motion sensor lights can be an excellent choice for hallways, especially in areas with frequent traffic. They provide convenience by automatically lighting up as you pass through, enhancing both safety and energy efficiency.

How can I ensure my hallway lights are both functional and stylish?

To ensure your hallway lights are both functional and stylish, consider combining different types of lighting, such as overhead fixtures for general illumination and wall sconces for accent lighting. Choose designs that complement your home’s overall decor while providing adequate brightness to prevent dark spots. Dimmers can also be a great addition, allowing you to adjust the light intensity to suit different times of the day or mood settings.

From ceiling lights to sconces, you have a ton of options when lighting your hallways. The problem is deciding which lights to use and how to combine them with the rest of your lighting scheme.

Let's see how you can use some of our hallway lights to your advantage and create the perfect atmosphere.

Hallway ceiling lights

Ceiling lights in the hallway are best used in narrow hallways where there isn't enough space for wall sconces. Depending on the height of the ceiling, you can use either flush mount lights or pendants. Go for pendants if your ceiling is more than 10 feet tall.

Whether you choose flush mount hallway lighting or pendants, you need to space your lights evenly.

First, decide on the number of hallway light fixtures you will use. This depends on the length of your hallway and the size of your chosen fixture. For most hallways, 3-5 ceiling lights are ideal but you can use fewer or more if your hallway is short. This of course depends on the type of fixture that you purchase, because some flush-mount hallway lights are made to illuminate the entire hallway by themselves.

Then divide the length of your hallway by the number of ceiling lights +1. For example, if your hallway is 20 ft. (6 meters) long and you want to use 3 pendants, then divide 20 by 4. This will give you the distance between each pendant. In this example, you would space your pendants 5 ft. apart from each other and 5 ft. from the edges of the hallway.

Finally, recessed can lights can absolutely be used in hallways but they are better in kitchens and living rooms. You want to diversify your light sources as much as possible, so you don't want to use too many recessed cans overall. Do go for them if you don't have too many recessed can lights in your other rooms.

Hallway wall sconces

Wall sconces are ideal for wider hallways, as they take up some space on the wall and you don't want your hallways to feel too cramped.

Typically, wall sconces are installed about 60 to 72 inches (5 to 6 feet) from the floor. This height ensures that the light is at eye level and provides effective illumination without glare.

The distance between the sconces generally ranges from 6 to 8 feet apart. This can vary based on the length of the hallway and the brightness of the sconces.

Just decide how many sconces you want to buy for your hallway and space them evenly apart, starting at 4 feet in from the two edges of the hallway and moving towards the middle, keeping an even distance of approximately 6 to 8 feet.

Specific steps to determine distance

  1. Measure the total length of the hallway where you will install the sconces.
  2. Determine how many sconces you want to install. For longer hallways, more sconces may be necessary to provide adequate lighting.
  3. Use the formula: Spacing = Length of Hallway / Number of Sconces + 1. ​This ensures even distribution along the hallway.

For example, if your hallway is 24 feet long and you want to use 5 sconces, then you should space them apart at 24 / 5+1 = 4 feet. This might indicate that you are planning to use too many sconces, so be sure to keep an eye on the brightness and size of the sconces.

If you purchase bigger or brighter sconces, consider installing fewer of them.

Accent lighting in hallways

In addition to ceiling lights and wall sconces, incorporating accent lighting can enhance the overall feel of your hallway. Accent lighting can be used to draw attention to specific features, such as a beautiful console table, a piece of artwork, or a striking architectural element like a niche or alcove.

Small LED spotlights or even under-cabinet lighting can work well for these purposes, adding a touch of drama to the hallway. You can even use wall washers to highlight the texture of your hallway walls.

Finishing touches

When lighting your hallway, it’s important to choose pieces that complement the overall style of your home.

For example, a modern home would benefit more from sleek, minimalistic fixtures like brushed nickel sconces or geometric pendant lights, which can provide a clean and contemporary look.

In contrast, a more traditional hallway might benefit from ornate chandeliers or classic lantern-style wall sconces. If you prefer a rustic style, consider fixtures made from natural materials like wood or wrought iron.

Don’t forget to consider the finish and color of your light fixtures as well! These should harmonize with other hardware and finishes in the hallway, such as door handles, picture frames, and furniture.

Like all things lighting, hallway lighting is about much more than just visibility—it’s about creating a space that is both functional and inviting. By combining ceiling lights or wall sconces and accent lighting, and by carefully matching the style of your fixtures to your home’s décor, you can transform a simple hallway into a beautifully lit, welcoming pathway.
