Hallway, Stairs & Landing Lighting

The hallway is the first room anyone sees, and the stairs and landing need light that is safe as well as welcoming. Choose flush lights for low ceilings, long-drop pendants for stairwells, and wall lights to guide the way up.

Buying Hallway, Stairs & Landing Lighting

How to Light a Hallway, Stairs and Landing

Start with the ceiling height. In a hall with a standard ceiling, a flush or semi-flush keeps headroom clear. In a double-height hall or stairwell, a long-drop pendant or chandelier fills the space.

Light the stairs evenly. Every step should be visible, so avoid a single bright point that casts hard shadows. Wall lights spaced up the staircase give even, comfortable light.

Make it easy to use. Stairs and landings are best switched from both the top and bottom, and your electrician can fit two-way switching.

Hallway, Stairs & Landing Lighting Questions

What is the best light for a low hallway ceiling?
A flush ceiling light. It takes up the least height and keeps light clear of the front door and anyone walking through.
What light suits a tall stairwell?
A long-drop pendant, a multi-light cluster or a chandelier hung within the stairwell, with its drop matched to the ceiling height. Check the maximum drop on the product page.
How high should hallway wall lights be?
About 1.6 to 1.8m from the floor, or measured from the step's edge on a staircase. Space them evenly so the light is consistent.
