Starkey Large Vanity Light - Aged Brass

A common guideline is 60–80% of the mirror width for an over‑mirror bar. For double vanities, use two smaller fixtures centered over each sink.

Mount over‑mirror bars with the center ~75–80 inches from the floor, or place side sconces 60–66 inches to center and 28–36 inches apart.

Target 1500–3000 lumens total per sink area depending on room brightness and wall color. Layer with ambient lighting to avoid harshness.

Choose 2700–3000K for warm residential and CRI 90+ for accurate skin tones and makeup. Keep CCT consistent with other bath lights.

Most modern fixtures are dimmable with triac/ELV or 0–10 V. Use listed dimmers for smooth low levels during evening routines.

Side sconces at eye level give the most even, shadow‑free light. If using a bar, pick a wide, diffused design above the mirror.

Select damp‑rated fixtures and seal penetrations. Use GFCI‑protected circuits where required by code.

Integrated LED bars are thin and even; bulb‑based fixtures allow quick lamp changes. Choose based on service preference and style.

Use diffusers, frosted lamps, and wide, even optics. Avoid clear bulbs directly in the line of sight at close distances.

Clean glass and mirrors with non‑ammonia cleaners, wipe metal with a soft cloth, and re‑tighten hardware as needed.
