Placement & Ratings
Covered Terraces & Dining
A simple cylindrical or globe pendant hung with roughly 7 feet of clearance above the floor provides functional overhead light for exterior dining and seating areas.
Entry Canopies
A single hanging lantern under an entry canopy creates a welcoming focal point. Scale the fixture to the canopy and keep clearance well above head height.
Weather Ratings
Covered positions generally require at least a Damp rating; exposed positions require Wet. Confirm each fixture’s rating on its spec sheet before installing.

Scandinavian Outdoor Hanging Light FAQs
How high should an outdoor hanging light be mounted?
Keep at least 7 feet of clearance between the floor and the bottom of the fixture in walkways and dining areas so people can pass and stand comfortably beneath it.
What weather rating do outdoor pendants need?
Fully covered positions generally require at least a Damp rating; anywhere exposed to direct rain or snow requires Wet. Confirm the specific fixture’s rating on its spec sheet.
Can outdoor hanging lights be used in windy locations?
Rigid stem-mounted fixtures handle wind better than cord-hung pendants, which can swing. For exposed terraces, choose a stem or rod-mounted fixture over a flexible cord.
Should the finish match my other exterior fixtures?
Yes — matching the finish across hanging lights, wall lanterns, and ceiling fixtures gives a composed exterior. Consistency matters more outdoors, where fixtures are seen together from a distance.
Are these fixtures LED?
Some use integrated LED and others take replaceable bulbs. Check the product page to confirm, particularly if you want a replaceable-bulb fixture for long-term serviceability.
