Abstract: A suspension device (101) for suspending objects (102), such as light fittings, at a distance from a ceiling (103). The suspension device comprises at least one rod member (104) and one flexible suspension line (105), wherein the rod member (104) is longer than 250 mm. The rod member has at least one attachment means (106) for at least one magnetic fastener (107, 108), and at least one alignment means (109) for slidably suspending (Z1) an upper portion (105?) of the suspension line relative to the longitudinal direction of the rod member. The suspension device further comprises at least one suspension means (110) for connection to both the suspension line (105) and the object (102), and a length-adjusting device (111) for adjusting the length (L1) of the suspension line between the rod member (104) and the suspension means (110).
