How high to hang a wall sconce?

Below are the best heights for wall sconces in different places:

  • Hallways and Entryways: Install wall sconces about 60 inches from the floor to the center of the junction box. You can adjust the sconce up or down based on whether it is an uplight or downlight.
  • Bedrooms: Wall Sconces should be measured about 30-36 inches above the top of your mattress, or you can sit up on the bed and place the sconce a couple of inches above your shoulder.
  • Kitchen: If you want to place wall sconces in your kitchen for ambient lighting, put them around 60 inches from the floor or 24 inches above the counter. If you want the light to serve as task lighting, put the sconce about 6 inches from the window frame.
  • Bathroom: In the bathroom, a wall sconce should be placed between 60 and 72 inches from the floor.

How to install wall sconces without wiring?

Before installing a wall sconce, choose a sconce that you want to go with your home decor. Once you have your sconce, you can begin the installation.

While the installation is straightforward, please consult with a licensed electrician for the installation and safety precautions.

  1. To start the installation, they’ll trace the mounting plate on the wall with a marking tool. This guides them when placing the hanger strip in the middle.
  2. The hanger strip is then adhered to the wall until the adhesive sets.
  3. While the hanger strip is adhering to the wall, the electrician will super glue a puck light to fit on the socket. They will ensure the adhesive bonds the puck to the sconce.
  4. Once the hanger strip is dry, the electrician will add the sconce on top of the strip. Then they will add the shade.
  5. Upon completion of these steps, they will finish the installation of the wall sconce.
