Wall and ceiling lights, but also spotlights (both recessed and surface mounted) are often used as bathroom lighting. LED wall lights, LED ceilings lights, LED downlights and LED floodlights are suitable for stairwell lighting and gallery lighting, but also for hallway lighting. In this case, the correct light temperature is crucial. Choose lighting with a colour temperature of 3000K or 4000K to illuminate the spaces well and prevent accidents. It's also important to use a UGR <25 as this distinguishes the steps, which allows people to use the stairs safely. Because in these areas there is not always someone present, it is recommended to use motion sensor lights. In this way you can save on energy costs on the long term as the light won't be on all day when it is not necessary.

Emergency lighting is mandatory for buildings and should be installed in all common areas, but they are crucial in stairwells and hallways as they often serve as escape routes. Our emergency lighting meet all the BS EN 12464-1:2021 requirements (BS EN 1838 BS EN ISO 7010, BS EN 3011 and BS EN 50172).

For canteen lighting LED panels and LED downlights are suitable and popular.

In foyers and entrance halls it is important to create a welcoming atmosphere and to help feel visitors at ease. From here visitors should also be able to find their way to other parts of the building easily. Ceiling lights, downlights, supended fixtures, panels and spotlights are appropriate foyer and entrance hall lighting. When a building has an integrated waiting area in the foyer, wall, standard and table lights are often used to provide additional lighting and to create a pleasant atmosphere.

At receptions you can generally find suspended fixtures and downlights, which are often combined with wall lights. Make sure that the reception lighting has a glare reduction value of <22 for the reception desk to create a practical and pleasant work environment for the staff. Choosing warmer colour temperature creates an atmosphere that helps visitors make feel more at ease. In meeting rooms and presentation rooms, good and pleasant lighting is essential. Therefore, usually LED bulkheads, spotlights, LED tracklight (3-phase) and downlights are used.

In common areas such as receptions, entrance halls and foyers, design lighting is commonly used. Design lighting adds aethethic and important ambiance to a space and is therefore preferred in certain settings instead of normal lighting, such as LED panels. In a foyer design lighting welcomes people, makes them feel at ease and gives a sophisticated impression to visitors. At Any-lamp we also sell design lighting.  You can browse through our assortment of pendants and ceiling lights. We also do project lighting for companies.

Emergency lighting

We will explain more about emergency lighting here. There are two types of emergency lighting: escape route markings, which are signs that show you where the nearest exit is, and escape route lighting, which guides you to the exit in case of an emergency. Both types of emergency lighting are mandatory in buildings (including offices). We also sell emergency lighting in our webshop. Click here to see all our emergency lighting. If you still have questions about emergency lighting, then you can read here more about this topic.

Height of fixtures

When installing a light, you need to consider several aspects, for example the height of the ceiling and the type of fixture. The higher the ceiling, the higher the lumen output should be. When you have a wall light, you need to install it at around 1.70 m, so the lighting will be on eye level and therefore won't blind people.
