Such extensions often exhibit extra spatial dimensions. In this note we investigate the effects of hidden photons living in extra dimensions. In four dimensions such a hidden photon is only detectable if it has a mass or if there exists additional matter charged under it. Here we point out that in extra dimensions suitable masses for hidden photons are automatically present in form of the Kaluza-Klein tower.
