Two light wall sconces deliver balanced illumination that single fixtures simply cannot match. These double light fixtures work perfectly in bathrooms flanking mirrors, bedrooms as reading lights, or hallways where consistent lighting matters most. Many of our fixtures offer both uplight and downlight mounting options to suit your specific lighting needs.
Why Choose Two Light Wall Sconces?
Double light sources eliminate harsh shadows while providing ample brightness for daily tasks. Unlike one light wall sconces, these fixtures offer superior coverage and visual balance in larger spaces.
Room Applications
Bathroom Vanity: Mount these fixtures on either side of mirrors for shadow-free grooming light. The dual bulb design provides even illumination across your face.
Bedroom Reading: Install beside beds as space-saving alternatives to table lamps. Most designs work with dimmer switches for adjustable brightness.
Hallway Lighting: Create welcoming pathways with fixtures spaced 8-10 feet apart. The increased light output makes long corridors safer and more inviting.
Style Options
Our collection includes modern geometric designs, traditional glass shades, and contemporary metal finishes. Choose from brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, matte black, or polished chrome to match your existing wall sconces and home decor.
For larger spaces requiring more illumination, consider our three light and up wall sconces. For covered patios and porches, browse our outdoor wall mount sconces collection.
Installation Guidelines
Most fixtures require standard electrical boxes and work with dimmer switches. Mount bathroom sconces 36-40 inches from countertops. For bedside installation, position 30-36 inches from the floor to the fixture center.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between uplight and downlight mounting?
A: Uplight mounting directs light toward the ceiling for ambient illumination, while downlight focuses light downward for task lighting. Many fixtures offer both options.
Q: Can these fixtures work in damp bathroom locations?
A: Yes, most of our two light wall sconces are rated for damp locations, making them safe for bathroom installation near sinks and mirrors.
Q: What bulb types work best with two light sconces?
A: LED bulbs in 2700K-3000K color temperature provide warm, comfortable lighting. Check individual fixture specifications for maximum wattage and bulb base requirements.
Q: How far apart should I space multiple sconces in a hallway?
A: Space fixtures 8-12 feet apart depending on light output and ceiling height. Higher ceilings may require closer spacing for adequate floor illumination.
Q: Do these fixtures work with existing dimmer switches?
A: Most fixtures are dimmer-compatible when used with appropriate LED bulbs. Check product specifications or consult an electrician for specific compatibility questions.
