An industrial light fitting illuminates a table, an island or a worktop with a screw-in E27 bulb, mounted on exposed metal and often topped with glass or a cage. Allow one pendant above the table, one ceiling light in a hallway and one wall light in an entrance, each set at its own height.

What is an industrial light fitting and what light does it give?
An industrial light fitting is a light inspired by workshop and factory lighting: exposed metal, simple shapes, glass or a cage around the bulb. In this collection, it spreads useful light above a table or a worktop, most often with a screw-in E27 bulb and a warm white glow.
The style comes from the structure left visible: tubular arms, a metal collar, a cage or glass that lets the bulb show. The shapes listed range from tube to globe, through round, oval and cage. Glass dresses nearly half of the models, wood softens the hardest silhouettes. Among our metal light fittings, a black model anchors the room while a pale one fades away.
The light depends on the bulb. With an E27 base, you choose the wattage and the colour temperature, and you only replace the bulb when it dims. A warm white of 2700 to 3500 K suits a living room as well as a bedroom, a cool white of 4500 to 6500 K lights a worktop. To stop changing bulbs, look at the LED versions, with a fixed temperature.
Which industrial light fitting should you choose for each room?
In this collection, the living room comes first, followed by the bedroom, the kitchen, the dining room and the hallway. A pendant suits a table or an island, a low-profile ceiling light suits a hallway or a small room, a wall light suits an entrance or a toilet.
Which industrial light fitting for a living room?
The living room holds most of the models. Above the coffee table, a chandelier or a pendant carries the general lighting; near the sofa, a wall light or a floor lamp adds the extra. A cage or amber glass warms up a raw interior. Browse our living room lighting to mix shapes and colours.
Which light fitting for a dining room and a kitchen?
Above a table or an island, the pendant drops within sight and lights the worktop directly. An E27 base leaves you free to pick a bright bulb in the kitchen and a softer one at the table. Our dining room pendants and the kitchen light fitting adjust in height to match your plan.
Which light fitting for a toilet, a hallway or an entrance?
A compact ceiling light of 16 to 23 cm in height fits under a low ceiling, including in a toilet. A wall light of 18 x 8 cm or 7 x 12.3 cm frees the floor of a narrow entrance. Also see the hallway lighting and the bedroom light fittings for small spaces.
Pendant, ceiling light or wall light: which shape for which use?
The pendant lights a table or a worktop and adjusts in height, up to 160 cm of cable on the models in the collection. The ceiling light stays close to the ceiling, 16 to 23 cm high, handy in a hallway. The wall light frees the floor and comes in 7 x 12.3 cm or 18 x 8 cm.
Industrial ceiling light with 1 bulb: for which room?
A single E27 bulb is enough for a hallway, an entrance or a small bedroom, as long as you choose a bulb suited to the surface. The Gearwood anthracite ceiling light measures 16 cm high, in wood and metal, with a replaceable E27 base.
Industrial pendant with adjustable height: how low should it hang?
Above a table, allow in general 75 to 85 cm between the bottom of the light and the top, and raise it if the room is low. The black metal industrial pendant has a maximum height of 145 cm, with an E27 base.
| Type | Dimensions recorded | Base | Where it appears most |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pendant | ø 47 cm, height adjustable up to 160 cm | E27 | Dining room, office |
| Ceiling light | H 16 to 23 cm, 60 x 90 cm in the LED version | E27 or LED | Living room, kitchen, hallway |
| Wall light | 7 x 12.3 cm, 18 x 8 cm | E27 | Bedroom, hallway, bathroom |
| Floor lamp | H max 123 cm, H max 150 cm, ø 45 cm and H 210 cm | LED or E27 | Living room, office |
| Chandelier | 40, 50, 53, 55 or 60 cm | G9 or G4 | Living room, dining room |
| Adjustable spotlight | H 17 cm, D 24 cm, length 35 cm | E27 | Living room, kitchen, office |
Which bases and which light colour should you choose?
The E27 base dominates the collection: the bulb can be swapped freely, at the wattage of your choice. The G9 and G4 models gather small points of light on chandeliers, while integrated LED versions have no bulb to change. For atmosphere, warm white 2700-3500 K remains the most common, neutral white and cool white are rarer.
E27, G9 or integrated LED bulb?
E27 to choose and replace yourself, G9 and G4 on chandeliers with drops or small domes, integrated LED when you no longer want to think about it. Around 30 % of the models accept a dimmer: check the product page before fitting one. Glass light fittings spread the light widely.
Warm white or cool white in an industrial light fitting?
Warm, 2700 to 3500 K, for the living room, the bedroom and meals; neutral, around 3500 to 4500 K, for a whiter look; cool, 4500 to 6500 K, above a worktop or a desk. A wall light in warm white stays comfortable in a hallway.
| Feature | Share of the collection | Worth remembering |
|---|---|---|
| E27 | 67 % | Common screw-in bulb, chosen freely |
| Integrated LED | 10 % | No bulb to change, fixed temperature |
| G9 | 10 % | Small pin base, frequent on chandeliers |
| G4 and GX53 | 6 % | Very small bases, on compact lights and ceiling lights |
| Warm white 2700 to 3500 K | 27 % | Warm atmosphere, suited to living room and bedroom |
| 40 W wattage | 37 % | Most frequent wattage on models with a bulb |
How do you match an industrial light fitting with a decor already in place?
An industrial light fitting matches by echoing a material or a colour already present: black metal against a glass roof, glass on a wooden table, gold on brass hardware. The living room mostly mixes metal and glass, in black, white or grey, which leaves the field open to a contemporary interior as well as a rawer decor.
Keep a single dominant material per room, then echo the colour of the light on another element: handles, table leg, frame. Black finishes structure the space, white light fittings fade into the ceiling. A slim tube pairs with a modern-style room, while a cage and amber glass lean vintage. A gold detail is enough to warm up a grey room.
Where should you install an IP20 industrial light fitting and how do you care for it?
All the models in the collection are IP20, so meant for indoor use, in a dry room and away from water splashes. Care is limited to dry dusting of the metal and the glass, without abrasive products, with an occasional check that the socket and the cable are tight.
The IP20 rating keeps out dust and ordinary solid objects, not water: above a sink, a bathtub or a shower, choose a model with a higher rating. In a bathroom, a wall light placed far from splashes is suitable. The selection is guaranteed for 2 years, and the connection to the mains, like any work on the installation, is entrusted to an electrician.
How do you build a pendant light fitting yourself?
Building a pendant light fitting requires an E27 socket, an electrical cable and a shade or a cage, fixed to a solid anchor point on the ceiling. The connection to the mains is still best entrusted to an electrician. If you prefer a ready-made pendant, the collection offers adjustable-height models with an E27 base.
Allow for the weight of the assembly, the length of cable needed to reach the terminal block, and a quality socket rather than an unmarked model. For the look, the bronze lamp with dimmer shows what a simple assembly can give with well-chosen glass and metal, without electrical DIY.
Where can you see an industrial light fitting in Lyon and find clearance stock?
To choose an industrial light fitting, check the base (E27 or LED), the maximum height and the installation area (IP20 for a dry interior). In Lyon, industrial light fittings can be seen in a showroom or a clearance outlet; clearance stock offers end-of-line runs or one-off colours, to collect on site according to the conditions displayed.
Light fitting shop in Lyon: how do you prepare your visit?
Note the ceiling height, the surface of the room, the colour of the walls and the base you want. Then compare with the pendant models and the contemporary-style pieces seen online, and you will save time on site.
Light fitting clearance in Lyon: what you really find there
Clearance stock offers end-of-line runs and one-off colours, in limited quantity and with no chance of matching them later. If you are looking for budget guidance, take a first look at our affordable selection before you travel.
Original living room light fitting and large industrial chandelier: how do you break away from the classic?
Breaking away from the classic comes through shape and material: globe, tube, cage or glass and iron drops, rather than a white ceiling light. For a large industrial chandelier in a living room, the collection offers diameters of 40 to 60 cm and G9 bases, to be kept for a room tall enough.
Under a 2.50 m ceiling, a large chandelier eats the room: prefer a slim pendant or a globe model. The large gold chandelier with drops sits in an open volume, 40 to 60 cm in diameter, with a G9 base. For an original living room light fitting without taking up volume, a globe shape or a designer pendant is enough to break the line of the ordinary ceiling light.
Secure payment, tracked delivery, returns and Designix customer service: you order the right reference, and our whole light fitting catalogue stays available if you hesitate between two families. Once the room and the base are chosen, the Nari E27 wall light completes a hallway or a bathroom in metal and glass.
Frequently asked questions
What is a class 1 light fitting?
A class 1 light fitting must be earthed: the connection includes an earth wire and is entrusted to an electrician. Class 2 works without an earth thanks to double insulation. For a specific model, the class is stated in the manufacturer's instructions.
What are the 3 types of lighting?
There is general lighting, which lights the whole room, accent lighting, which is more localised, and feature lighting, which highlights an object or a wall. In a living room, a chandelier or a ceiling light carries the general light, a wall light or a floor lamp adds the accent.
Which light fitting for a toilet or a small room?
For a toilet, a hallway or an entrance, aim for a compact ceiling light: those in the collection measure 16 to 23 cm in height, which fits under a low ceiling. A wall light also works, in 18 x 8 cm or 7 x 12.3 cm, placed away from water splashes.
Is an industrial ceiling light with 1 bulb enough for a room?
A ceiling light with one E27 bulb is enough for a hallway, an entrance or a small bedroom. For a large living room or a dining room, a pendant or a model with several points of light is better, completed with a floor lamp or a wall light.
Which light fitting should you choose for a dining room?
Above a table, a pendant with adjustable height is the most practical: the collection offers up to 160 cm of cable, with an E27 base. A chandelier suits a large room, in particular the models of 40 to 60 cm in diameter lit with G9.
