Semi Flush Mount Ceiling Lighting

Unlike traditional flushmount lights, semi-flushmount lights provide a bit of protrusion for a dynamic, eye-catching appeal. Think of semi-flush lights as the middle ground between the flushmount ceiling light and the chandelier. You might even think of them as semi-flush chandeliers if you like.

These ultra-versatile fixtures are a top-notch pick for home and business owners looking to add the perfect blend of decorative style and practical illumination to their spaces. Each of our semi-flushmount lighting fixtures is capable of illuminating large areas from above. Our semi-flushmount lighting fixtures feature delightful design elements that capture your special decor theme.

How to Choose the Best Semi-Flush Lighting

At 1800Lighting, we stock semi-flush ceiling lights from best-selling brands like Hinkley, Kichler, and LBL Lighting. We also carry models made by Troy Lighting, Tech Lighting, and many more premium manufacturers. From semi-flushmount chandeliers with classic crystals and tiers to ultra-modern globe-style semi-flushmount lighting, our selection includes delightful styles to suit your particular preferences. 

When purchasing a semi-flushmount light, we recommend you to consider the following factors:

Size of the Space 

Semi-flush fixtures tend to offer additional illumination since they hang slightly lower and allow light to shine upward. This is an important consideration for lighting a space. 

Decorative Style

We have one-of-a-kind industrial semi-flush ceiling lights in finishes like chrome and bronze, plus nautical-inspired styles with time-honored finishes that look right at home in the kitchen next to copper pots and pans. They would be perfect for that beach house or quaint saltbox by the sea. We even have unique and whimsical styles for out-of-the-box design lovers, including glass flushmount ceiling light options and mid-century and retro-inspired styles that are big on personality. You can find these attractive, practical fixtures for practically every room in your home, from a semi-flush kitchen light to a bath light fixture with wavy glass.

With a wide variety of styles and sizes, you should have no difficulty finding the right look and feel for your room’s décor at 1800Lighting by Capitol Lighting. 

Ceiling Height

Semi-flushmount ceiling lighting works best on average-height ceilings that remain parallel to the floor. If you have a low ceiling, you may be better off with a flushmount light. Vaulted ceilings are more conducive to pendant lights and chandeliers. 

Where Semi-Flushmount Lighting Works Best

Many homeowners prefer the semi-flush style over flush-mount fixtures in low-ceiling dining rooms or kitchens. These fixtures are a perfect choice for those who love the look of pendant lights and chandeliers but don't have enough airspace for a style with a long chain or suspension pole. These lights also look lovely when installed above a bed in the bedroom or over a bar or fireplace in the living room or den. Whether in the bedroom, hallway or kitchen, our semi-flush lighting is sure to bring the perfect balance of style and sensibility to your space.

Flushmounts vs. Semi-Flushmounts

Flushmount and semi-flushmount ceiling fixtures have more similarities than differences. Flushmount lights are mounted right against the ceiling, while the body of a semi-flushmount fixture has a body that places the bulbs slightly further away from the ceiling. In addition to showing a larger amount of visible details, this also allows more light to shine upward, which creates a halo effect. In other words, with all other things being equal, semi-flushmount lighting provides greater illumination than flushmount lighting.

Why We Love Semi-Flushmounts

We think that semi-flushmounts are great because they are a perfect fit for rooms that need a greater amount of light but don’t have the space or height for a chandelier or pendant. Semi-flush mount lights also provide a little extra body to help tie in the look of the space. Or you can match the body with other fixtures, like wall sconces.
