Schoolhouse Entryway & Foyer Pendants

Why We Love Entryway & Foyer Pendants

Invite guests in with warm, welcoming light provided by entryway and foyer pendant lighting. Adding a pendant lamp or hanging light to your entryway will make a lasting impression with its design and it is sure to provide enough light to sufficiently fill the room. No matter your style or design preference, there is an entry pendant here you will love.

In rooms or areas of your home where a chandelier or flush ceiling light are not the best fit, pendant lighting is the ideal option. Pendants hang from the ceiling at varying lengths and are available in multiple sizes, shapes and styles to accommodate your entryway or foyer area. Unlike a purely functional hanging light you might have in the kitchen or dining room, your foyer pendant lighting is meant to make a great first impression among anyone entering your home. Whether you have a large entryway that can accommodate robust pendant designs or a smaller, more compact foyer that can be befitted with mini pendants, you'll find the addition of a pendant is eye-catching and compelling to your guests. And while we love the look of modern pendants, there are a variety of styles to choose from.

A Foyer Pendant Light for Every Style

Like chandeliers and other decorative forms of lighting, pendants are offered in styles to meet varying interior aesthetics while still fulfilling an attention-getting purpose. These entryway pendants can find their place in traditional homes or those boasting with modern implements. Make a noticeable statement in your home with an iconic piece from Artemide or the Danish design brand, Louis Poulsen. These fixtures shine brightly in entryways and have a wealth of history your guests may enjoy. Maxim Lighting offers elegant choices for homes with classic and traditional decor, and look to Kichler for a number of transitional and contemporary options. Complete a rustic, wrought-iron look with Hubbardton Forge and if you appreciate energy efficiency in your home, be sure to check out the LED pendants available.

Choosing the Best Entryway & Foyer Pendant Lighting

When choosing a light fixture for any space, you first need to determine the appropriate size. Begin by measuring the area of your foyer's ceiling where the pendant will be installed. This measurement will give you the proper understanding for how large (or how small) of a pendant you will need to choose. Then, look to important sizing dimension like height, width, diameter, and weight to find the perfect pendant for your entryway. You can also refine your options by important design features, the materials the fixture is made from and of course, colors and finishes.

Other Considerations

For an extra large entryway or foyer area, why not go even bigger with your lighting design and choose a large chandelier to put on display? Foyer chandeliers can take a up a lot of space on the ceiling (in a good way) and are guaranteed to convey your sense of design style to anyone who enters your home. Finally, if you would prefer something other than ceiling lights in your entryway, you can still find plenty of options in well-designed table lamps and wall sconces.
