| Hello, We are building a new main entrance to our home with an attractive Pella door/sidelights that will be accessed by a 10' X 6' covered porch. I want to use recessed lights to both illuminate the porch and accentuate the door but I am unsure how many and what size I should use. I would prefer to use line voltage. Any suggestions on spacing and size and most reliable brands would be appreciated.
Thanks, Russ |

| A recessed light is good for accenting features. It is thus perhaps a good choice for the door. Cans are almost always a poor choice for general illumination. Wall mounted, pendant, or surface mounted lights will do a better job for significantly lower installation and operating cost. |
