How High Should Pendant Lights Hang Over a Kitchen Island?

The standard height for hanging pendant lights over a kitchen island or counter top is 30-36 inches above the surface, making ideal capability and aesthetics. This height provides enough task lighting without restricting views. Changes can be made based on ceiling height and personal preference—lower the lights slightly for higher ceilings to create balance, or raise them for lower the ceilings to avoid a restricted feel. Always consider your space’s sizes for the ideal look.
