Pendant Lights

Pendant lights in general

Pendant lights, also known as ceiling lamps, hanging lamps, or in some cases, chandeliers, are a central element in any room’s lighting design. Valaisin Grönlund distinguishes ceiling lights, which are mounted close to the ceiling surface, as a separate product category. Typically, a pendant light serves as the primary light source in a room and is often one of the first things that catches the eye. As such, it plays a significant role in both the interior design and the atmosphere of the space.

A wide range of pendant lights

Pendant lights come in a variety of shapes and styles. The Design by Grönlund collection offers a broad selection of pendant lights designed to meet various lighting and interior needs. The collection includes:

• Efficient LED lights: Provide bright and energy-efficient illumination.
• Acoustic pendant lights: Improve room acoustics while illuminating the space.
• Pendant lights with shades: Offer soft and evenly distributed light.
• Metal and glass pendant lights: Add a modern or classic touch to the decor.
• Striking chandeliers and crystal pendant lights: Bring luxury and elegance to the space.
• Adjustable pendant lights: Allow for easy and practical light direction.

Efficient LED lights

The LED pendant lights in Valaisin Grönlund’s collection deliver excellent lighting performance and are compatible with TRIAC-type dimmers, allowing for adjustable brightness. These LED lights combine sleek design, long lifespan, and a pleasant light distribution. Dimmable LED lights have been tested with dimmers like the Schneider Exxact WDE002299. Many models also offer DALI compatibility as an additional option.

Acoustic pendant lights

The Design by Grönlund collection includes acoustic lights that help reduce noise in a space, making them an excellent choice for offices. Acoustic felt absorbs sound, reducing noise levels. The collection includes models like Acoustic Circulo, which features a thick acoustic panel for effective sound absorption, and Acoustic Line, a lighter option ideal for placement above dining or conference tables.

Pendant lights with shades

Valaisin Grönlund offers several pendant lights with fabric shades that create soft, even lighting. These lights are ceiling-mounted with a hook and include a plug for easy installation. Most models feature an E27 bulb socket, and the shade can be easily removed and replaced thanks to a clamp mount. Some models also include a base plate to further reduce glare.

Metal and glass pendant lights

Metal pendant lights offer a different aesthetic compared to fabric shades and are easy to maintain. The collection includes unique designs that suit various interior styles. Glass pendant lights are increasingly popular, with options such as champagne, cognac, clear glass, smoked glass, and frosted glass, as well as gradient-colored models.

Chandeliers and crystal pendant lights

Valaisin Grönlund offers a selection of striking chandeliers and crystal pendant lights. Chandeliers feature multiple outward-extending arms and several light points, creating a grand and eye-catching look. Crystal chandeliers include crystal components that beautifully reflect light. It’s important to note that genuine crystal is heavy, so the ceiling’s load-bearing capacity should be checked before installation.

Adjustable pendant lights

Valaisin Grönlund’s adjustable pendant lights feature swivel joints that allow the light to be directed to a desired area, making them ideal for task lighting.

Installing a pendant light

Most pendant lights hang from their power cord, but heavier fixtures are suspended with a chain or wire. Valaisin Grönlund’s LED lights often use suspension wires that also function as power cords. Most pendant lights come with a three-meter suspension length, allowing for installation in rooms with high ceilings. Installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Mounting a ceiling light

In Finland and Sweden, ceiling outlets make it easy to install hook-mounted pendant lights. Installing a ceiling light is straightforward and can be done in a few steps:

1. Loosen the cord clamp screw on the ceiling cup, adjust the cord to the desired length, and wrap any excess cord inside the cup.
2. Hang the light on the ceiling hook.
3. Connect the plug to the ceiling outlet.
4. Tighten the ceiling cup against the ceiling.

If installing the ceiling cup directly to the ceiling without a ceiling outlet cover, use the support bracket or mounting bar included with the cup. All electrical installations should be performed by a qualified electrician in compliance with electrical safety regulations.
