FAQ

WHAT ARE CLOSE TO CEILIING LIGHTS?

 

Close to ceiling lights known as surface-mounted lights or batten fix lights have shades that either hang close to or sit directly on the ceilings. These lights are particularly well-suited for spaces with low ceilings as they minimize the distance between the shade and the ceiling. While they were initially designed with oyster or glass-shaped domes, they have evolved in their designs over time. They are commonly installed over dinner tables, in entryways, kitchen islands, bedrooms, nooks, and above coffee tables and couches. Offering both functionality and aesthetics, close-to-ceiling lights provide a beautiful and practical lighting solution without the need for hanging fixtures.

 

EXPLAIN THE DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN SEMI-FLUSH AND FLUSH-MOUNT CLOSE-TO-CEILING LIGHTS?

 

There are two main types of close-to-ceiling lights: semi-flush and flush-mounted lighting. Flush-mounted lights direct their illumination downward, fitting snugly against the ceiling with no gap. This design makes them an excellent choice for spaces with low ceilings.

 

On the other hand, semi-flush ceiling lights, as the name suggests, are fixtures that partially recess into the ceiling during installation. These lights feature a small clearance, like a tube, short chain, or thin cable, connecting the shade to the canopy directly fixed on the ceiling. This setup allows semi-flush ceiling lights to emit light both upward and downward.

 

WHICH AREAS ARE MOST SUITABLE FOR THE INSTALLATIONS OF CLOSE-TO-CEILING LIGHTS?

 

Close-to-ceiling lights are particularly well-suited for low-ceiling applications due to their minimal shade-to-ceiling distance. Interior designers also recommend utilize them in high-ceiling rooms as decorative or accent lights to harmonize the architectural elements with the overall decor.


These lights find numerous appropriate spots within homes:

 

Living Rooms: Close-to-ceiling lights offer fantastic lighting options for living rooms, providing a well-balanced and practical illumination that elevates the ambiance of the space. With their flush or semi-flush mount design, they blend seamlessly into the ceiling, creating a clean and unobtrusive appearance. As excellent choices for general lighting needs, they ensure even illumination without causing glare or harsh shadows, fostering a warm and inviting atmosphere perfect for relaxation and socializing.

 

Kitchen: Many homeowners and renters prefer close-to-ceiling lights and downlights over hanging fixtures like pendants and chandeliers in kitchens. The reasons include the desire for additional vertical clearance and reducing the accumulation of smoke and odours. Opting for close-to-ceiling lights and downlights can address these concerns effectively.

 

Laundry Room: Close-to-ceiling lights are also favoured in laundry rooms for similar reasons to those in the kitchen. With constant movement expected, fewer obstructions in the floor-to-ceiling space minimize accidents and provide ample room for drying garments and sheets.

 

Walk-In Closet: Due to their narrow or smaller size, walk-in closets benefit from small lights for general and task lighting to maximize available space. Close-to-ceiling lights, including downlights, spotlights, and flush-mounted options, are preferred in these spaces over large pendant lights or chandeliers.

 

Children’s Rooms: Safety concerns lead parents to avoid hanging furniture and lights in children's rooms, ruling out pendant lights, chandeliers, and certain lamps. However, close-to-ceiling lights provide a practical and decorative alternative that ensures safety without sacrificing illumination.
