Choosing the Right Flush Mount Light

A flush mount light sits directly against the ceiling, while a semi-flush mount hangs slightly lower, creating a small gap that allows light to reflect off the ceiling.

Flush mount fixtures work well in:

  • Bedrooms – Provides soft, ambient lighting.
  • Kitchens – Ideal for even overhead illumination.
  • Hallways & Entryways – Keeps pathways well-lit.
  • Bathrooms – Look for damp-rated flush mounts.

Flush mounts are available in various styles, including:

  • Modern Flush Mounts – Clean lines and sleek materials.
  • Traditional Designs – Elegant detailing and classic shapes.
  • Crystal Flush Mounts – Luxurious, sparkling designs.

Installation & Placement

To determine the correct size, use this formula:

Add the room’s length and width in feet, then convert that number to inches for the ideal diameter.

Example: A 10' x 12' room would require a light fixture approximately 22 inches in diameter.

If you’re replacing an existing fixture, installation is usually simple. However, for new wiring or heavy fixtures, hiring a licensed electrician is recommended.

Flush mount lights should be installed with at least 7 feet of clearance from the floor to prevent obstructions.
