Outdoor Ceiling Light Types & Ratings
There are several types of outdoor-rated ceiling lights, including:
- Flush Mount Ceiling Lights – Ideal for low-clearance patios or covered porches.
- Semi-Flush Mount Ceiling Lights – Offers a slightly elevated design for a stylish look.
- Outdoor Hanging Lights & Lanterns – Perfect for gazebos, entryways, and high ceilings.
Damp-rated lights are suitable for covered patios and porches where they won’t be directly exposed to rain. Wet-rated fixtures can handle direct exposure to rain, snow, and humidity, making them ideal for uncovered outdoor areas.
Installation & Placement
Outdoor ceiling lights work best in:
- Covered patios and porches – Use damp-rated ceiling lights for protection against humidity.
- Gazebos and pergolas – Opt for hanging lanterns or flush-mount fixtures.
- Front entryways – Enhance curb appeal and visibility with decorative ceiling fixtures.
- Carports and covered driveways – Use bright LED outdoor ceiling lights for security.
