Flurlampen

The right hallway light provides orientation, safety, and an inviting first impression. Since many hallways receive little natural daylight, well-planned hallway lighting is especially important. With the right hallway lights, you create not only brightness but also structure. Whether functional or decorative, lights in the hallway should adapt to your everyday life while matching your interior style. At EGLO, you’ll find a wide selection of hallway lights that combine design, quality, and everyday practicality, from small entrance areas to long or open hallways.

Ceiling Lights for the Hallway

Ceiling lights form the basis of every hallway lighting concept. They provide even illumination and create instant orientation when entering the space. For general hallway lighting, around 100–150 lumens per square metre are ideal. A 10 m² hallway therefore requires approximately 1,000 to 1,500 lumens. LED ceiling lights are particularly practical because they provide full brightness immediately.

Wall Lights for the Hallway

Wall lights complement classic hallway lights and create targeted lighting accents. They add variety to the lighting concept and make the space feel more homely. In narrow hallways, they are especially practical because they do not take up floor space while still providing additional brightness. For pleasant light distribution, a mounting height of around 1.60 to 1.80 m is recommended. Many modern wall lights are designed as LED indoor lights and offer a durable, low-maintenance solution for everyday use.

Hallway Lighting

Well-planned hallway lighting usually consists of several light sources. It is the combination of ceiling lights, wall lights, and indirect lighting that creates a balanced overall effect. Distribute several lights evenly throughout the hallway to avoid shadowy areas. This is especially important in long or angled layouts. Depending on the desired effect, different light colours can be used in the hallway:

• Warm White (2,700–3,300 K): often chosen to create an inviting and homely atmosphere

• Neutral White (3,300–5,300 K): supports clear illumination and is often used for better orientation in everyday life

LED Lights for the Hallway

LED lights for the hallway are now widely used. They provide instant brightness and are available with practical features such as dimming or adjustable light colours. An LED light in the hallway is particularly useful because the light is often switched on and off in this area. Many models also offer practical features such as dimming or adjustable light colours. LED indoor lights also enable compact designs, making them ideal for modern hallway lights with clean lines.

Indirect Hallway Lighting

Indirect lighting creates a soft, glare-free lighting effect. LED strips or wall lights that direct light onto the wall or ceiling can make the hallway appear larger and calmer. This effect is especially noticeable with light-coloured walls, which can reflect up to 70–85% of the light.

Lighting for Narrow Hallways

Narrow hallways call for compact solutions. Flat ceiling lights or slim wall lights provide sufficient brightness without making the space feel smaller. Light-coloured surfaces also support light distribution, while dark materials reflect only around 10–20% of the light.

Lights for Long Hallways

Long hallways need several light sources. Instead of one central hallway light, a row of ceiling lights or spotlights is recommended. Alternatively, you can combine different hallway lights to create an even line of light and structure the space visually. Track systems or recessed lights are also suitable for long hallways, as they allow several light points to be supplied from a single power connection.

Hallway Lighting with Motion Sensor

Hallway lighting with a motion sensor adds everyday comfort. Lights in the hallway switch on automatically as soon as movement is detected. This is especially practical in the dark or when your hands are full, as the light switches on automatically when movement is detected.
