Pendant lights

Find the right pendant light or hanging light at eibabo®. Our extensive lighting catalog leaves nothing to be desired. Read on to learn about the different styles, colors, materials and sizes. In addition, you will receive conventional light sources or economical LEDs to match.

Where are pendant lights used?

When we think of pendant lights, the place above the dining table comes to mind as a classic place of use. And indeed, pendant lights are often mounted above tables such as the dining table or coffee table and, as ceiling lighting, create atmospheric light when eating or socializing. But pendant lights are also decorative alternatives in other places. Think of a counter in a bar, the reception area of the doctor's office or the reception desk in a hotel. With a bit of creativity and stylistic sensitivity, you can turn pendant lights into full-fledged furnishings that create atmosphere and enhance your ambience. Pendant lights are even used in industrial workshops. However, these are technically and optically optimized for these applications.

What should be considered when installing pendant lights?

Remember that pendant lamps need a reference point in order to look their best. Suspended anywhere in the room, pendant lights usually look out of place. Pendant lights can be ideally adapted to the spatial conditions. With high ceilings, the length of the suspension can often be adjusted manually. A distance of around 60 to 80 cm above the edge of the table has proven to be the ideal height for lights above the dining table. Of course, this can vary depending on taste and the size of the lamp. You should make sure that your new pendant lamp has a lampshade in order to form a cone of light and direct the brightness optimally to the desired area. As a result, other areas are not or only diffusely illuminated and the light is not perceived as disturbing.

our recommendation

Avoid pendant lights in rooms with low ceilings and bathrooms. Use ceiling spotlights or recessed spotlights instead. For cheap and stylish spotlights and recessed lights, please select the appropriate category here in the shop.


Smaller pendant lights with a small lampshade look particularly stylish when placed above bedside tables, your bar or a side table. Many of our pendant lights are also available in versions with multiple light sources, so that you can easily implement uniform illumination of larger tables or longer areas.

How big should a pendant light be?

For a successful look, it is advisable to follow a few basic stylistic rules, especially in the private sphere. These relate to:

  • the size/diameter or circumference of the pendant light in relation to the room size
  • the installation height in relation to the room height

 

It is assumed that lamps that are too large or too small disturb the harmonious overall impression. Calculating the rough guideline is quite simple:

(Length of the room in meters + width of the room in meters) x 10 = the optimal diameter of the pendant light in centimetres

It is clear that very few lights consist of a sphere and therefore the diameter cannot always be used as a reference. Alternatively, the circumference calculated from this can be used, for example if the pendant light consists of several spheres or has an elongated shape. An example:

(Room length 5.5 meters + room width 4.5 meters) x 10 = 100 centimeters in diameter or 314 centimeters in circumference

Of course you can also deviate from this. Other influencing factors often also play a role in the decision. For example, whether the floor plan of the room is very simple or complex, or whether there is already a lot of furniture in the room. The height of the pendant lamp should not be more than one third of the distance from the floor to the ceiling. With a ceiling height of 3 meters, this is 1 meter. For classic living room heights of around 2.7 meters, 50 to 70 cm should be chosen so that the height to the floor is at least 2 meters.

Are pendant lights also suitable as workplace lighting?

The lighting effect of pendant lights results from the design, the light source used and the positioning of the light. In this way, you can influence whether the effect of the lighting should be more direct or more indirect, or whether the light should be diffused or directed. You can also use pendant lights in the company as office lighting or workplace lighting. Of course, the requirements for optimal lighting in the workplace are high, but with the right shape and suitable lamps, this can be implemented without any problems.

 


TIP:

If necessary, such pendant lights for the office can be equipped with a grid or diffuser in front of the light source. These emit a glare-free light on the work area.


 

Use pendant lights in an elongated design if they are to be placed directly above the desk. LED strips ensure even light distribution over the entire length. This ensures that the pendant lights used do not cast any lateral shadows and that the entire work area is optimally illuminated. The higher the light source, the wider the irradiated area and the lower the illuminance on the floor and work surface. To ensure the desired light intensity, you should adjust the height of your pendant lights correctly. Never place them lower than two meters so that employees do not accidentally hit their heads.

What advantages do pendant lights offer?

The main advantage of pendant lamps is the ability to place light sources at the right height. This is especially useful when organizing lighting on dining tables, kitchen worktops, warehouses, machine rooms, workshops and industrial halls where the rooms typically have high ceilings. Another plus is the easy installation. How a pendant light is attached depends on its design. Usually 1 to 2 suspension points are required. Particularly large and heavy models can also have more suspension points. Whether for private use or commercial use - pendant lights are available in countless variants, colours, price ranges and designs. There are both classic and creative pendant lights of various types on the market. The selection is so large that you are sure to find a model that suits you.

Which bulbs should I use for pendant lights?

When buying your new pendant light, don't just look at its appearance. Consider at the same time an economical, effective and powerful lighting effect. This is easily possible with LED pendant lights. Pendant lights with LED bulbs offer lower power consumption and a long service life. The LEDs are often permanently installed and cannot be replaced individually. But the use of energy-saving lamps is also recommended for pendant lights with replaceable lamps and classic screw sockets. Be sure to pay attention to the color temperature emitted by a light source. This is given in Kelvin (K). The higher the value, the more the color temperature shifts towards the blue. Daylight of around 5,500 Kelvin is recommended for use in laboratories, classrooms or in industry. This increases concentration and prevents fatigue. The somewhat warmer neutral white is generally used for offices.

 


For comparison

Candlelight has a color temperature of around 1500 Kelvin.


 

Lamps with a color temperature between 2200 and 2700 Kelvin are the right choice for a cozy atmosphere at the dining table.

By the way:

The chandelier is considered the forerunner of the modern pendant lamp. This was typically a multi-level lamp made of copper or iron, which was hung on chains and sometimes equipped with numerous candles. Magnificent accessories made of glass and crystal reflected the candlelight and thus optimized the light output.
