Eurofase Surface Mount Lights
What is a Surface Mounted Light?
A surface mount light fixture is a light fixture that is mounted on a flat surface and protrudes out from the surface. Surface mounting fixtures are typically easier to install than recessed lights because they do not require cutting the wall. They are great for low ceilings since they do not take up as much space. In comparison to recessed lights, surface mounted light fixtures tend to be less expensive. This is due to less labor and installation costs.
While they are cheaper, surface mounted lights do have some issues. One issue is that they create shadows on the ceilings which makes the ceiling appear shorter. This can affect the ambiance of the room you are in.
Another issue is that the lights can be knocked out of place if they are brushed against with enough force unlike recessed lights.
Where can Surface Mount Lights go?
Surface mount lights are very versatile which means they can go in most places in your home. They are great for areas with lower ceilings. Some places they can be placed include basements, laundry rooms, and hallways.
