Foyer/Stairway lighting
Comments (3)My personal opinion is to not get the ones with globes, especially the ones going upward, if you don't have good access to the chandelier. Dust, bugs etc will collect in there if you can't get to it. But if you can, and you want the globes, I'd think the ones going downward would give more light. I like the chandelier with no globes at all....See MoreDbl-height stairway light & window seat questions
Comments (5)Thanks @Annie Deighnaugh! SO, on the light, you think 24" is too wide, right? Is 41" too tall or is that the realm I should be shooting for?

Lots of other stuff to do first, unfortunately.......See Morestairway track lighting help
Comments (1)That should be relatively easy, if you can get up there to reach the ceiling. Access might be the difficulty here as ladders and stairwells can be tricky. The existing lights should come off the track without issue once you figure out the trick.

It shouldnt require much force to remove the cans so if they arent moving, try another approach. After you get the cans off, you will be able to see the number of prongs on the base and possibly a brand name. LED track light heads are much smaller and less noticeable. You might even choose to use three lights instead of two...See Morestairway lighting help
