As you walk toward the entrance of the house, wall mounted lanterns can share the task of lighting the area. Two lanterns with low wattage will minimize glare more than a single lantern with large wattage. Since lanterns provide directional light, their careful placement is important. The front door, which is the focal point of your home, is the only area for which we recommend mounting two fixtures on either side of the upper one-third of the door providing there is room.
