Cabinet Lighting

Frequently Asked Questions

Illuminate wardrobes, cupboards, kitchen cabinets, and bathroom units with our collection of under cabinet lighting. From sleek spotlights and kitchen strip lights to multicoloured LED strips, there's a solution for every space.

What is the Best Under Cabinet Lighting?

The best cabinet lighting will depend on where you intend to use it and whether it is for practical or simply decorative use. For contemporary kitchens, remote-controlled multicoloured under cabinet lighting is a brilliant way to illuminate surfaces and worktops when cooking and prepping food while adding a playful touch to your space. Alternatively, bar and push lights can be discreetly installed under cabinets and cupboards - neatly hidden from view and providing a little extra light when you need it for food preparation or tidying up.

An internal cupboard sensor light is an excellent option for bathroom cabinets, detecting movement when doors or drawers are opened.

Where to Place Under Cabinet Lighting

To avoid illuminating your wall rather than the surface below, your lights should be positioned towards the front of the cabinet. Most kitchen and bathroom cabinets will have a slightly elongated front, which will help to conceal the lights when they are switched off.

If you are installing kitchen cabinet underlights, ensure that the spotlights are evenly spaced and positioned directly above important areas, such as the cooker, worktops and sink.

LED strip lighting can also be placed at the base of your kitchen cabinets and cupboards for a contemporary look that isn’t just practical, but also a great way to create an inviting atmosphere. Many versions allow you to customise the colour, helping you to set the mood for any occasion.

How to Hide Under Cabinet Lighting Wires

Recessed cabinet bottoms, valances and wire protectors are all commonly used to hide wires in and around cupboards. If you’re not sure which is the best solution, always ask a qualified electrician for advice.

Alternatively, our collection includes several integrated battery-operated cupboard lights. They are really easy to install and perfect for small spaces without a mains electricity connection.
