Black Vanity Lights

Black Vanity Lights in the range

Black Vanity Lights here are 5 to 18 inches tall, in Black and Black+gold. Frames use Iron, Metal, Acrylic and Glass, with shades in ‎glass, Glass and Acrylic. Light counts run from 3 to 6. Every product page states the assembled dimensions, the weight and the bulb base.

Choosing the right size

Aim for about 75 percent of the vanity width, and never wider than the mirror. Mount it 3 to 6 inches above the mirror top, or around 75 to 80 inches from the floor.

Wiring and bulbs

This group holds both hardwired fixtures and plug-in models, and each product page says which. Dimmable models are marked on their product pages. Wet-rated fixtures in this group are safe for covered outdoor use. Bulb base and whether bulbs are included are stated on every listing, so you know before it arrives.

Finishes and materials

Finishes cover Black and Black+gold. Construction runs to Iron, Metal, Acrylic and Glass. A finish name describes the color applied to the fixture rather than the metal underneath, and the product page states both.

Common questions

How do you install a vanity light? These are hardwired fixtures. Switch off the circuit, fix the mounting bracket to the wall box, connect line, neutral and ground, then seat the backplate. Centre the fixture on the mirror, not on the vanity, if the two are not aligned.

How do you replace a vanity light? Cut the power and confirm it is off at the wires. Remove the old backplate and bracket, fit the new bracket to the same box, reconnect the three wires and seat the new fixture. The box position sets where the new light can sit.

How high should a vanity light be? Mount a fixture above the mirror about 75 to 80 inches from the floor, or roughly 3 to 6 inches above the top of the mirror. Sconces beside a mirror go lower, at eye height, around 60 to 66 inches.
