Our huge range of ceiling lights features plenty of stylish and practical options for revamping your kitchen space. With the presence of steam and condensation, it’s essential to choose kitchen lights with a suitable IP rating for the installation.

LED kitchen light temperature is another important consideration – while warm white might be perfect for living rooms or bedrooms, you’ll often need a bright and crisp 4000K cool white for carrying out everyday kitchen tasks.

For a precision beam of light, kitchen spotlights deliver excellent illumination of objects or surfaces directly below. You can find these popular kitchen light fixtures for all kinds of installations, from ceiling fittings to under-cabinet use. For even greater versatility, consider kitchen track lighting – it’s a perfect choice above anything from worktops and islands to family dining tables.

Kitchen Lighting FAQs

How bright should kitchen lights be?

4000K cool white light is among the most popular kitchen light temperature choices. It’s a far crisper light, with none of the yellow glow you’d get with a warm white alternative – this provides clear brightness for carrying out everyday kitchen tasks. If you also use your kitchen to host and entertain guests, fitting warm white lights as well will give you the option of a softer and more welcoming look.

Are LED lights good for kitchens?

Yes. LED kitchen lights are incredibly popular thanks to a combination of efficiency, reliability and long-lasting performance. As well as being a dependable choice for your main kitchen lighting, they are also an exceptional task lighting option – fitting LED kitchen strip lights can really help with food preparation and other work.

How to choose kitchen lighting?

No matter what size or layout you’re working with, choosing the right lights for kitchen use can make a huge difference. Bright kitchen lights are great for small kitchens without windows – spotlights or strip lights are a fantastic choice for precise and focused beams.
