Wall Bed Lighting

Wall beds are not just for sleeping. In order to get the maximum functionality out of a fold-up bed, adding a light fixture or two can greatly enhance its usability Options for where to add a bit of illumination and how it is styled are wide and varied.

Where Can You Add Lighting To Your Wall Bed?

The short answer is: wherever you need it.

Here are just a few of the places where it makes perfect sense to add lighting to your wall bed:

  • Built into side piers – this is perfect for display shelves or just to add a bit of light to a dark room.
  • Desk top – when your wall bed is part of a home office, you will definitely want illumination for a workspace, desk or return.
  • Bookcases – easily find what you are looking for by installing a light across the top of a book shelf.
  • On the bed itself – add illumination to aid reading or put it on the outside of the cabinet to help light up the room.
  • In the wardrobe closet – sure, it’s a great space saver to have a cabinet closet installed on one or both sides of your wall bed, but you need to see inside when the doors are opened.
