Returns & warranty

How long is the return period?

What do I need to do to return something?
Register your return via info@europe-lighting.nl, including your order number. Pack the items carefully, preferably in the original packaging, and send them back. Read our full return policy.

What warranty does my product have?
We provide a minimum of 2 years of statutory warranty on all our products. Some manufacturers offer a longer manufacturer’s warranty.

What if my product arrives defective or damaged?
Report this within 48 hours of delivery via info@europe-lighting.nl. Together, we’ll find a suitable solution: repair, replacement, or refund.

Product & installation

Can I install LED lighting myself?
You may perform simple connections to the mains, such as E27, E14, and plug-and-play fixtures, yourself. For fixed installations, such as recessed spotlights, track systems, or fixtures connected directly to the circuit, we recommend hiring a certified installer. This is safer and often required by your insurance.

Which driver / transformer do I need?
For products that require an external driver, this is stated on the product page. For the 48V magnetic track system, you’ll find the corresponding drivers in the product details.

Are the lights dimmable?
Each product indicates whether it is dimmable and which type of dimmer is suitable (leading-edge, trailing-edge, 0-10V, DALI). Check the product specifications or ask us.

What do IP ratings mean?
The IP rating indicates how well a fixture is protected against dust and water. For outdoor lighting, we recommend at least IP44; for bathrooms, at least IP44 (zone 2) or IP65 (zone 1).
