Renovating the kitchen? Decide control groups before the cabinets arrive
During a kitchen renovation, the best smart-lighting purchase begins with a circuit and driver plan. Decide task, island and ambient groups before cabinetry hides access, then select suitable devices for those agreed functions.

Give every group a purpose
Mark which lights support preparation and which create atmosphere. Avoid one oversized scene controlling every surface, and identify a normal manual action for each group so basic kitchen use stays familiar.
Keep service access in the drawing
Show drivers, connection points and control modules on the kitchen plan. Final product ratings and wiring belong in the electrician’s review; smart features do not remove the need for appropriate electrical installation and accessible maintenance.
Request a drawing-linked quote
Send the cabinet layout and lighting schedule together. Ask HomeTech to tie quantities to those groups, making it clear which components belong to first fix and which decorative elements can be chosen later.
Before you buy
