Billiard Hall Lighting

The 4 problems we see most

01

A single narrow head leaves double shadows that mislead the shot

02

Heavy cue shadows make position play hard to read

03

Hung too high it glares, too low it fouls the cue

04

Illuminance varies between tables, so private rooms and the main hall feel inconsistent

Our lighting approach

01

2-3 symmetrical heads with wide beams cover the bed from several directions and soften cue shadows

02

500-800lx maintained on the bed with uniformity of at least 0.7

03

Mounted 1.5-1.8 m above the bed, clear of the cue swing

04

Lighting point plans from your table count and room size, with custom lengths and head counts

05

Ambient and table lighting on separate circuits for switchable service modes

Frequently asked questions

What wattage does one pool table need, and how high should the light hang?

A standard American pool table (approx. 2.8m × 1.5m) usually uses a 2-3 head billiard luminaire at 20-40W per head

Why does billiard lighting stress 'shadow-free' and minimal cue shadows?

Players read the shadows of ball and cue to judge position. Symmetrical multi-head layouts with wide beam angles cover the bed from several directions and wash out cue shadows; a single head or too narrow a distribution leaves obvious double shadows that mislead the player.
