Easy Lighting Upgrades with Plug-In Wall Sconces & Lamps
Plug-in wall sconces add wall-mounted lighting without a hardwired electrical connection. A plug in wall lamp mounts to the wall and draws power from a nearby outlet, making it useful in finished rooms where adding new wiring is impractical. Whether you are living in a rental apartment where hardwiring isn't an option, or you simply want to add a reading light to a finished room without the mess of renovation, our collection of wall lamps that plug in delivers style and function.
Renter-Friendly: Easy Install Sconces
For years, renters were stuck with harsh overhead lights or floor lamps that took up valuable space. Plug in wall lights change the game. They mount to the surface of the wall and plug into an existing outlet, avoiding the need for a new hardwired connection. You can install high-end sconce lighting to define your space and take the fixtures with you when you move, although mounting holes or finish marks may need repair.
Where to Use Plug-In Sconces
- Bedroom: Create a boutique hotel look by mounting plug in sconces on either side of the bed. This frees up your nightstand surface area and provides excellent reading light.
- Living Room: Place a plug in swing arm sconce behind your sofa or favorite armchair to create a cozy reading nook.
- Home Office: Add task lighting to your desk area without cluttering the desktop. An adjustable wall lamp can be positioned to illuminate your work perfectly.
Cord Solutions for Wall Lamps That Plug In
One common concern with easy install sconces is the visible cord. However, modern design has turned this into a feature rather than a bug.
- Decorative Cords: Fabric-wrapped or twisted vintage-style cords can add texture and character to the look.
- Cord Covers: For a cleaner, more built-in appearance, you can use suitable surface-mounted cord covers that conceal the cord and coordinate with the fixture’s finish. Keep the cord accessible as directed by the manufacturer; do not conceal a standard fixture cord inside the wall.
Plug-In Wall Light Styles: Modern to Industrial
Just because they are easy to install doesn't mean you sacrifice style.
- Industrial: Exposed bulbs, metal cages, and matte black finishes look right at home with a visible cord.
- Modern: Sleek, minimalist designs often use the cord as a linear design element.
- Traditional: We offer elegant brass and fabric-shade options that look just like hardwired fixtures once installed with a cord cover.
