How to light a porch or veranda

Flush or hanging. A flush or semi-flush mount sits 130 to 170 mm below the ceiling, so it suits a porch with a standard-height ceiling. A hanging lantern needs more room: keep at least 2.1 m clear underneath wherever people walk.

Position. Centre a single light over the front door landing. Along a veranda, space lights 2.5 to 3 m apart.

Shelter. A covered ceiling protects a fitting from direct rain, but outdoor ratings vary by design, so check each product page before choosing a light for an exposed spot.

Match the walls. Several of these designs, including the Hinkley Republic, Brixton and Freeport, have matching wall lanterns for a consistent look across the front of the house.
