Hotel bedside lighting collection

Headboard Reading Lights

Choose a reading light that works with the headboard, not just the room image. MYDE headboard reading lights bring adjustable task lighting to the bedside, with recessed and surface-mounted formats to review against your furniture construction, cable route and guest controls. Send us your headboard drawing and required functions. We can help shortlist a format before you commit to panel openings or a room sample.

Three formats to review for your headboard

The starting point is the space behind the visible panel and the functions needed at the bedside. Compare these models as different integration options; final fixing and electrical details need to match your headboard assembly.

ModelFormatReading-light controlChargingWhat to review first

All three models have a 3 W reading light and an adjustable head. Their mounting details and additional functions differ. Select the configuration for the room rather than carrying one model’s dimensions or features across the range.

02

Recessed or surface-mounted: start with the furniture interface

Recessed integration

MD-WL-Y135 and MD-WL-Y020 use recessed installation. This makes the space behind the faceplate part of the selection decision. Review the panel construction, rear clearance and cable access before approving the opening.

MD-WL-Y020 has a 110 × 110 mm front panel. Its panel and rear housing depth is 56 mm, excluding the lamp head. These are product dimensions, not an installation cut-out specification. Ask for the installation information for the selected configuration before cutting the headboard.

Surface-mounted integration

MD-WL-Y003 provides a surface-mounted alternative with the reading head, switch and USB-A port arranged on one vertical plate. Review its fixing arrangement and cable entry with the furniture or installation team. Surface mounting does not remove the need for a suitable support or electrical connection.

For upholstered headboards, share the build-up behind the fabric. For timber panels, identify the structural support, panel thickness and available rear access. A room rendering alone cannot establish those details.

03

Put the reading head and controls within the guest’s reach

The relationship between the pillow, mattress and mounting position matters as much as the fixture itself. Review the proposed position for the actual bed type, including both sides where appropriate.

Check these points in the room sample:

  • The head can aim towards the reading area without colliding with the headboard or adjacent fittings.
  • The guest can reach and identify the switch from the intended position.
  • Charging cables, where specified, have a clear route and do not obstruct the controls.
  • The lamp head can be stored or repositioned without interfering with nearby furniture.

MD-WL-Y135 uses a concealed switch. Do not assume that moving or docking its head automatically switches it off; confirm the intended interaction when reviewing the sample.

04

Specify reading and charging separately

Choose MD-WL-Y135 when reviewing a recessed reading-focused format. Compare MD-WL-Y020 if USB-A and USB-C access is part of the brief, or MD-WL-Y003 for a surface-mounted reading light with USB-A.

MD-WL-Y020 has a shared total USB output of 5 V, 2 A. This is not a separate 2 A allocation to each port. A USB-C connector alone does not establish fast-charging capability; tell us the charging requirement you want the project team to evaluate.

For a wider combination of reading, ambient light and bedside interfaces, discuss an integrated headboard lighting brief.

05

What to send for a practical shortlist

Provide the destination country, headboard elevation and section, panel material and thickness, bed type, proposed lighting position, reading and charging requirements, finish reference and expected quantity. Include any electrical or documentation requirements already set by your project team.

We can then review the candidate format and identify the drawings and sample checks needed for approval. Confirm fixing, cable access and the final configuration before releasing the furniture for manufacture.

Useful answers

Before we begin

01Can these reading lights be installed in any headboard?

Compatibility depends on the headboard construction and the chosen model. Share the panel build-up and access details so that mounting, rear clearance and wiring can be reviewed together.

02Does every model include USB-C charging?

No. MD-WL-Y020 includes USB-A and USB-C, while MD-WL-Y003 includes USB-A. Do not assume that a reading-focused model has the same ports as a charging model.

03Can I use the faceplate size as the cut-out size?

No. A faceplate dimension describes the visible product, not the required opening. Use installation information confirmed for the specific model and configuration.

04Can the lights be checked in a room mock-up?

Discuss the required models, configurations and sample arrangements with our team. Use the room review to check mounting, aiming, control access and the surrounding furniture before approving the production specification.
