- The vanity light should be approximately 3/4 the width of your mirror, and never longer than the mirror itself.
- For double sinks or wider countertops, consider a larger fixture or multiple fixtures for adequate illumination.
- Mount the fixture above the bathroom mirror, ideally between 75 to 80 inches from the floor.
- If using wall sconces on either side of the mirror, place them at eye level (about 65 inches from the floor) and 2-3 inches from the mirror's edge, approximately 28-30 inches apart.
