How to light a hallway

Spacing. Space wall lights 2.4 to 3 m apart along a hall, starting about 1.2 m in from each end, for an even run of light without dark patches.

Height. Centre wall sconces about 1,600 to 1,800 mm above the floor, a little above eye level.

Narrow halls. Choose a slim sconce that sits close to the wall so people do not brush past it, or a flush mount ceiling light, which suits a standard 2.4 m stud.

Pendants in an entry. In a taller entry or stairwell, a pendant makes a strong first impression. Keep at least 2.1 m clear underneath.
