SYNERJI SYIWL03MWHES INDOOR METAL WALL LIGHT MATT WHITE

Indoor wall lights, also known as wall sconces, are light fixtures that are mounted on walls to provide ambient, task, or accent lighting in interior spaces.

Common types include:

• Up/down lights: Direct light both upwards and downwards
• Uplights: Direct light upwards for ambient illumination
• Downlights: Direct light downwards for more focused lighting
• Picture lights: Designed to illuminate artwork
• Reading lights: Adjustable for focused task lighting
• Flush mount: Sit close to the wall for a sleek look
• Plug-in wall sconces: Do not require hardwiring

When choosing an indoor wall light, you should consider the following factors:

• The style of your room: Choose a wall light that complements the overall style of your room.
• The size of your room: Larger rooms may require larger wall lights.
• The amount of light you need: Consider the amount of light you need to illuminate your space.
• Your budget: Indoor wall lights can range in price from affordable to high-end.

• Save floor and surface space compared to table or floor lamps
• Create a layered lighting effect when combined with other light sources
• Can highlight architectural features or artwork
• Provide task lighting in specific areas (e.g., beside a bed for reading)
• Add decorative elements to walls

Popular locations include:

• Flanking a fireplace or mirror
• In hallways or stairwells
• Beside or over the bed
• In bathrooms, on either side of the mirror
• Above kitchen counters or in dining areas
• In living rooms to highlight artwork or create ambiance

General guidelines include:

• In living areas: 1.67 to 1.82 meters from the floor
• Beside a bed: 76.2 to 91.44 centimetres above the top of the mattress
• Over artwork: 15.2 to 20.3 centimetres above the frame
• In bathrooms: At eye level, typically 1.5 to 1.6 meters from the floor

Many wall lights require hardwiring into the electrical system, but there are also plug-in options available. Hardwired lights often provide a cleaner look but require professional installation.

While plug-in wall lights can often be a DIY project, hardwired wall lights typically require installation by a licensed electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical codes.

Consider these factors:

• Wall size: Larger walls can accommodate bigger fixtures
• Room scale: The light should be proportional to the room and furniture
• Purpose: Task lighting may require smaller, more focused fixtures.
• A general rule: The height of the fixture should be about 1/4 to 1/3 the height of the wall.

Yes, LED wall lights offer several benefits:

• Energy efficiency
• Long lifespan (up to 50,000 hours or more)
• Low heat emission
• Available in various colour temperatures
• Often dimmable for ambiance control

While wall lights can provide significant illumination, they're often best used as part of a layered lighting plan. Combine them with ceiling lights, table lamps, or floor lamps for comprehensive room lighting.

Look for:

• LED fixtures or fixtures compatible with LED bulbs
• ENERGY STAR certification
• Fixtures with high lumens per watt ratio
• Smart features like occupancy sensors or daylight harvesting
