Collection: Close to Ceiling Lights

Close to ceiling lights are light fixtures designed to sit flush orvery close to the ceiling surface, creating a neat and minimal look. They provide strong general lighting without hanging down like pendant lights, making them an excellent choice for rooms with lower ceilings or where you want a clean, modern ceiling finish.

There is no major difference — close to ceiling lights and flush mount lights are often the same lighting style, just described using different wording. 

They both: 

• sit close against the ceiling 
• provide broad ambient lighting 
• suit low or standard ceiling heights 

Close to ceiling lights work well in almost any indoor space, especially where clearance matters, such as: 

• Bedrooms 
• Hallways and entryways 
• Kitchens 
• Living rooms 
• Laundry rooms 
• Walk-in robes 
• Home offices 
• Rental properties and apartments 

They’re also popular in commercial spaces like offices, waiting rooms, and corridors. 

Yes, close to ceiling lights can be very bright — but brightness depends on: 

• the lumen output of the fitting or globes 
• the room size 
• the diffuser style (clear, frosted, fabric, etc.) 
• ceiling height and wall colour 

For bigger rooms, using multiple fittings or combining with other lighting (like lamps or downlights) can help create better coverage. 

Oyster lights are a type of close to ceiling light, but the main difference is style: 

Close to Ceiling Lights 

• broader category 
• includes decorative flush mounts, modern LED ceiling lights, etc. 

Oyster Lights 

• usually simpler, compact design 
• commonly used for hallways, bedrooms, rentals, and outdoor covered areas 
• great for practical, even lighting 

Yes — many close to ceiling lights are LED compatible, meaning you can install LED globes for: 

• lower energy usage 
• longer lifespan 
• reduced heat output 
• better efficiency compared to older globe types 

Always check the lampholder type (for example E27 or E14) and the maximum wattage recommended. 

This depends on the room mood and purpose: 

• Warm White (2700K–3000K): bedrooms, cosy spaces, living rooms 
• Cool White / Neutral White (4000K): hallways, kitchens, general lighting 
• Daylight (5000K–6500K): garages, workshops, high-visibility areas 

For flexibility, many customers choose Tri-Colour CCT ceiling lights. 

In most cases, yes — close to ceiling lights are typically hardwired ceiling fittings, so installation should be completed by a licensed electrician to ensure safety and compliance.
