Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Flush Mount Lighting

What is the difference between outdoor flush mounts and semi-flush mounts? 

Outdoor flush mounts sit directly against the ceiling with no gap, ideal for those with low ceilings or a minimalist look. They are perfect for outdoor porches, patios, or entryways that have limited space. Semi-flush mounts hang roughly 4-8 inches away from the ceiling, which allows for more light dispersion and a more dramatic lighting effect. They are better suited for areas with slightly higher ceilings. Both come in various styles and can be used in outdoor locations, depending on their damp ratings.  

What does “wet-rated” mean for outdoor flush mount lights?

“Wet-rated” indicates a fixture can withstand direct exposure to water and outside moisture. These are necessary for uncovered patios, open porches, or areas near water features. Wet-rated fixtures are sealed to prevent water ingress and made with corrosion-resistant materials. They often have set drainage systems as well which helps prevent water accumulation. For covered outdoor areas, damp-rated fixtures might suffice, but wet-rated options provide maximum durability for all outdoor applications.  

Are LED Flush Mount Ceiling Lights a Good Option?

Absolutely! LED flush-mount ceiling lights are an excellent option for outdoor lighting, offering significant energy savings while also being durable and shock-resistant, making them ideal for outdoor usage. Many LED fixtures offer adjustable color temperatures and dimming capabilities, providing customizable illumination in your outdoor space. Their slim design is perfect for areas with limited ceiling clearance.  When selecting, ensure the light has high IP ratings for water resistance and check on the lumen output to ensure you get adequate brightness for your space. 

How do I choose the right size flush mount light for my outdoor space?

Selecting the right size flush mount light for your outdoor space depends on several factors. For smaller entryways or porches up to 6 feet wide, a flush mount with a diameter of 12-18 inches usually works well. Medium-sized areas between 6-12 feet wide typically require fixtures 18-24 inches in diameter. For large spaces over 12 feet wide, choose a fixture that is 24 inches or larger, or use multiple smaller lights. Ceiling height is the second consideration, as a lower ceiling of 8 feet or under should have a flush mount no taller than 6-8 inches. A good rule of thumb is to multiply your area’s square footage by 1.5 to determine the minimum lumens needed to illuminate the space.
