Frequently Asked Questions

How high should I hang an outdoor pendant light over a dining table?

To ensure clear sight lines and prevent accidents, an outdoor pendant light or outdoor chandelier should hang between 30 to 36 inches above the surface of the dining table or bar counter.

Can I use an outdoor hanging light in a fully open patio or gazebo?

Only if the fixture is certified as wet location rated and securely mounted. Most outdoor foyer lights and porch pendant lights are only damp-rated and must be installed in covered areas protected from direct rain and heavy wind.

What is the difference between an outdoor pendant light and a hanging lantern?

An outdoor pendant light typically features a sleek, minimalist design, often with exposed bulbs, providing focused light. A hanging lantern is generally more traditional, with glass panels and a framed structure, designed to provide a classic, ambient glow.

How do I choose the right size outdoor chandelier for my space?

For a large covered patio or gazebo, the diameter of your outdoor chandelier should typically be one-third the width of the area it is illuminating (e.g., a 12-foot wide patio needs a 4-foot wide chandelier).

Are outdoor chandeliers and hanging lanterns safe in windy areas?

Yes, provided they are securely installed. Always ensure your exterior hanging light is mounted to a sturdy junction box rated for the fixture's weight. For highly exposed, windy areas, choose fixtures with a heavier build and minimal surface area.
