High Ceiling Pendant Lights
High ceilings in properties often look disproportionate to their surrounding environment if there aren’t any decorations or functional pieces that can introduce a balance. One of the ways that can add proportion to these places is by installing high-ceiling pendant lights.
By its name, this pendant range is designed for areas with abundant free vertical space, such as stairways, ballrooms, and commercial halls. They’re characterised by either their long suspension length that can occupy most of the empty vertical clearance or their massive structure that can grab one’s attention at a glance. Most of these fixtures are statement lights - centrepieces that instantly captivate viewers or important decorative lighting that can enhance the overall atmosphere of important occasions and gatherings.
Zest Lighting welcomes you to browse our collection of pendant lights for high ceiling applications. Each pendant in this range faithfully captures the essence of the style and aesthetics poured by artisans and designers to create wonderful lighting pieces that are both functional and beautiful. Browse our collection and see if there is a pendant light that can join and blend the appeal and charm of your spaces.
CHARACTERISTICS OF HIGH CEILING PENDANT LIGHTS
It’s easy to identify which pendant lights are suitable for high ceilings. Below are some common features of high ceiling pendant lights:
- Lengthy Suspensions: High ceiling pendant lights typically feature elongated components connecting the bulb or shade to the canopy. This suspension can be in the form of cables, rods, or stretchable strings, creating an illusion of height and filling empty vertical spaces.
- A “Large” Impression: These lights are designed to appear substantial, even if their actual size is not massive. They visually occupy space, reducing the emptiness of tall ceilings. Examples include cluster pendants, multi-armed pendants, and feature pendants.
- Low-Maintenance Components: Many high ceiling pendant lights are designed for minimal maintenance. They often feature LED bulbs and electrical protection (Class II - double insulated), reducing the need for frequent upkeep or mechanisms to lower them for cleaning.
GUIDELINES FOR CHOOSING AND INSTALLING HIGH CEILING PENDANTS
Finding the perfect pendant light for a high ceiling space requires careful consideration. Here are key factors to keep in mind:
- Narrow Your Options: High ceiling pendant lights come in various styles. To avoid an overwhelming search, filter your choices based on factors like room style, colour scheme, size, natural light availability, and budget.
- Assess the Installation Area: Consider the room’s structure, including ceiling height, shape, and available space. The surrounding décor and furniture also play a role in determining the ideal pendant style.
- Be Cautious with Numerical Suggestions: Some sources provide specific height measurements for pendant suspensions, but these may not be universally applicable. High ceilings can range from 9 feet to 20 feet or more, so always tailor recommendations to your space.
- Follow the Rule of Thirds: High ceiling spaces often feel empty without proper layering. Balance lighting by incorporating wall lights, cluster pendants, chandeliers, and floor lamps to complement the pendant lighting.
- Hanging Height Considerations: The ideal suspension length depends on the location. Entryways and hallways require at least 7 feet of clearance for foot traffic. Dining areas and kitchen islands need appropriate spacing to prevent obstruction.
