If you have a double bed, install a lamp with a dimmer switch on each side—this lets one person read comfortably without disturbing the other.
Bedside wall lamps have emerged as a new trend in modern decor—their soft, warm glow effortlessly enhances the bedroom’s romantic ambiance. While bedrooms typically rely on ceiling lights or pendant lights for main illumination, overhead lighting often feels impractical when reading or watching shows in bed. Below, we’ll walk you through key selection tips and step-by-step installation methods for bedside wall lamps.
1.the purchase of bedside wall lamps
The bedroom is our go-to space for rest and relaxation, so its lighting should center on soft, warm tones. Wall lamps or floor lamps can easily take the place of central ceiling lights here—for wall lamps, opt for diffused-material shades with a low-gloss finish to keep light gentle. A tea-colored, cut-glass wall lamp mounted above the bedside wall adds a quaint, elegant, and timeless charm; for bedside tables, a double-sided table lamp works perfectly too. If you have a double bed, install a lamp with a dimmer switch on each side—this lets one person read comfortably without disturbing the other.
Installing a bedside wall lamp is surprisingly simple, with just two core steps: first, pinpoint the exact installation location; second, mount the fixture itself. Once fitted, it’s ready to use—no extra steps like airing out or curing are needed.
2.Determine the installation location
The bedside wall lamp is the wall lamp installed on the bedside of the bedroom. What we must do before installation is to determine the location of the installation.
a. The installation height of the bedside wall lamp is preferably 1.5m~ 1.7m from the ground at the lower mouth of the wall lamp;
b. The distance between the bedside wall lamp and the wall is approximately 95 to 400mm.
3. Installation method
Installing bedside wall lamps is straightforward—the core step is securing the fixture to the wall. For bedside setups, common options include using embedded parts, drilling (then securing), or gluing. Among these, gluing is the preferred method for bedside wall lamps, and there are a few key gluing techniques to choose from:
a. Brush coating method: Use a brush to apply the adhesive to the bonding surface, which is the simplest and most commonly used method.
b、Spraying method: For low-viscosity adhesives, ordinary paint spray guns can be used for spraying. For high-viscosity adhesives with a short active life and difficult cleaning, reinforced plastics can be used in the Bert-made spray gun industry. The advantages of spraying method are uniform gluing and high efficiency; the disadvantage is that the glue loss is large (about 20 to 40%), and the solvent is lost in the air to pollute the environment.
3. Self-flow method: rain type automatic device is used. This method is very suitable for flat plate parts, with high work efficiency and is suitable for mass production.
