Kitchen Lighting Ideas
Under cabinet, worktop, plinth and cupboard lighting, designed to work together.
Kitchen lighting guide
Light your kitchen in layers
The best kitchen lighting ideas use more than one kind of light. Task lighting under the wall cabinets lights the worktop where you prepare food. Convenience lighting inside cupboards, larders and drawers helps you find things. Mood lighting along the plinth, under the worktop edge and around the island adds depth in the evening.
Sensio designs LED kitchen lighting for every one of those zones: under cabinet lights, LED strip lights, profiles, plinth lights, and the drivers and sensors that run them.
Plan your kitchen lightingKitchen lighting ideas, zone by zone
Light the worktop under wall cabinets with spotlights or LED strip. Add strip under the worktop overhang to make an island a feature, and plinth lights for a glow at floor level. Light cupboards, larders and drawers as they open, show off shelves and glassware, and use rechargeable lights or magnetic track to add light to an existing kitchen.

How to plan your kitchen lighting
1. Light in layers
Start with task lighting at the worktop, add convenience lighting in cupboards and drawers, then decide where mood lighting will add atmosphere.
2. Factor in the power
Run the wiring before the kitchen is fitted. Plan power to the wall units, base units and island, and where the drivers will sit.
3. Complement the design
Warm white suits wood and traditional kitchens, cool white suits modern finishes, and natural white works with most. TrioTone® lets you choose on the day.
4. Create zones
Put each zone on its own switch, so you choose which lights come on and when.
5. Choose the controls
Light cupboards as the door opens, switch zones together, or dim from a remote or the Link Sensio app.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre iluminación de cocina
Explorar iluminación de cocina¿Cuáles son las mejores ideas de iluminación para una cocina?
Combine tres tipos de iluminación. La iluminación funcional bajo los armarios de pared ilumina la encimera, la iluminación de conveniencia en el interior de armarios y cajones le ayuda a encontrar las cosas, y la iluminación ambiental en zócalos, bordes de encimeras y estantes aporta ambiente.
¿Cuándo debería planificar la iluminación de mi cocina?
En la fase de diseño, antes de instalar la cocina. Es mucho más fácil llevar la electricidad a los muebles altos, muebles bajos y la isla antes de la instalación que después.
¿Qué color de luz es el mejor para una cocina?
El blanco cálido combina con cocinas de madera y tradicionales, el blanco frío es ideal para diseños contemporáneos y el blanco natural funciona con la mayoría de los acabados. Las luces TrioTone® y CCT le permiten elegir o cambiar el color. Consulte la tecnología CCT.
¿Cómo puedo controlar la iluminación de la cocina?
Configure zonas en diferentes interruptores, utilice sensores de puerta para que los armarios se iluminen al abrirlos, o utilice un controlador inteligente para gestionar la iluminación desde un mando a distancia o una aplicación móvil. Explore controladores y mandos.
¿Puedo añadir iluminación a una cocina existente?
Sí. Las luces a batería recargables no necesitan cableado, y el riel magnético Affinity le permite añadir o mover luces debajo de los gabinetes más adelante.
¿Dónde puedo comprar la iluminación de cocina Sensio?
La iluminación de Sensio está disponible a través de tiendas de cocinas, instaladores y nuestros distribuidores y proveedores. Los clientes comerciales pueden solicitar una cuenta profesional.
Can I add lighting to an existing kitchen?
Yes. Rechargeable battery lights need no wiring, and the Affinity magnetic track lets you add or move lights under cabinets later.
How can I control kitchen lighting?
Set up zones on different switches, use door sensors so cupboards light when opened, or use a smart driver to control lighting from a remote or the Link Sensio app. Browse sensors and controls.
Do I need an electrician to fit kitchen lighting?
Sensio 24V lights plug into the driver, so fitting the lights themselves is simple. Any work on mains wiring, including connecting the driver to the supply, should be done by a qualified electrician.
Where can I buy Sensio kitchen lighting?
Sensio lighting is available through kitchen retailers, installers and our distributors and stockists. Trade customers can apply for a trade account.
