Frequently Asked Questions About Dining Room Lighting

What size pendant light should I choose for my dining table?

As a guide, the pendant's diameter should be roughly a third of your table's width. For a 1.2m table, a 35-40cm pendant is a good starting point, and every product page at Lighting.co.za lists exact diameters.

How high should a dining pendant hang above the table?

Aim for 75-90cm between the bottom of the fitting and the tabletop, so it doesn't obstruct sightlines across the table while still casting focused light downward.

Can I hang two pendants over a long dining table?

Yes, for tables longer than 2m, two smaller pendants spaced evenly, or one elongated linear fitting, usually reads better than a single oversized pendant.

What finish should I choose to match my dining table?

Warmer wood or rattan tables pair well with brass, gold or matte black fittings, while glass or marble tables suit chrome, nickel or clear glass pendants for a lighter feel.

Is a chandelier or a pendant better for a dining room?

Chandeliers suit higher ceilings and more formal, symmetrical rooms, while a single statement pendant works well in smaller or more relaxed dining spaces. Both should sit centred over the table.

Do dining pendants from Lighting.co.za come with bulbs included?

This varies by fitting, so check the individual product page on Lighting.co.za, as some pendants are supplied with a bulb and others are fixture-only.

Can dining room lights be dimmed?

It depends on the fitting. If it takes a replaceable bulb, fit a dimmable bulb with a compatible dimmer switch. If it's an integrated LED fitting, check the product description on Lighting.co.za to confirm it has a dimmable driver if this matters for your setup.

Do you deliver dining room lighting nationwide across South Africa?

Yes, dining room lighting can be delivered anywhere in South Africa, with delivery details confirmed when you order.
