Answers from experts.
This switch is designed to work completely independently of your hinges, using an optical sensor to detect when any standard cabinet door opens or closes.
Wiring Kitchen Sensor Switches Into Existing Lighting
How difficult is it to wire this switch into my current lighting setup?
The system comes complete with a generous 2-metre lead and a simple plug-and-play design that integrates seamlessly with your 12V or 24V Häfele Loox lighting drivers.
Preventing Sensor Malfunction From Dust Or Steam
Will the sensor stop working if it gets dusty or if I have a steamy kitchen?
Engineered with an IP20 protection rating and a durable plastic housing, the sensor is highly reliable for indoor environments and can simply be wiped with a dry cloth if dust accumulates.
Sensor Switch Vs Standard Push-Button For Kitchen Drawers
Is this switch a better choice than a standard push-button for my kitchen drawers?
A touchless sensor completely eliminates the need for physical contact, making it a far more hygienic and elegant solution, especially when your hands are wet or covered in food during meal prep.
Black Sensor Housing Clashing With Cabinetry
What if the black housing clashes with my white or timber cabinetry?
We have included three interchangeable front cover caps in crisp white, black, and subtle grey, giving you the complete freedom to perfectly colour-match the sensor to your specific joinery.
Resetting Sensor Switch After Power Outage
If the power goes out, will I have to reset the switch programming?
No, the switch features a smart built-in memory function that securely stores your on/off state, ensuring your lighting returns to its exact previous setting the moment power is restored.
