Make preparation surfaces feel clear and welcoming with under-cabinet LED lighting planned around your worktop, splashback and sightlines.
A discreet light beneath the wall units can make a kitchen feel more considered and easier to use. Its position matters as much as the strip: aim to illuminate the working surface without exposing a bright line to the room.
Use these kitchen concepts to explore how working light and softer accents can sit together. They illustrate design ideas rather than a specified product or installation.
Bring the idea back to your own surfaces, cabinet dimensions and preferred lighting mood.
Shop LED strip lightsUse the room, the joinery and the way you live as the starting point for the installation.
Test the proposed position before fixing it. A profile nearer the front may spread light across the worktop, while a rear position can emphasise the splashback. The right choice depends on cabinet depth, the task area and what is visible from the dining table.
Glossy stone, glass and polished tiles can mirror individual emitters or the entire strip. Compare a continuous-output strip with your chosen profile and diffuser using a sample over the actual finish. Check both standing and seated views.
Record usable cabinet lengths and any breaks at the cooker hood, tall units or corners. Include cable travel between sections, not just the lit lengths. Agree driver access and suitable protection near water or heat with your installer before ordering.
Choose the lighting effect first, then check the strip, controls and installation together. These swatches explain the choices; they are not photographs of a product’s light output.

Explore warm whiteA more neutral white-light appearance. Check the selected product and test it on the surface you want to light.
Explore natural whiteA cooler white-light appearance. Consider how it works with the room’s finishes and existing lights.
Explore cool whiteChange the white-light tone using compatible CCT controls. The available range depends on the selected strip.

Explore colourWhat about RGBW? RGBW combines colour with a separate white channel. The white tone and control options depend on the product. Compare RGB and RGBW strip options and check the complete system.
Swatches are illustrative, not exact colour temperatures. Screens, surfaces and installation details change how light appears. Colour availability and suitability vary by selected product.

A corner profile for directing the light from a cabinet edge.Check the 18.5 × 18.5mm section, strip width and visibility before fixing.
View productThese are individual products, not a complete lighting kit or a checked bill of materials. Confirm strip, profile, power, controls, connections and installation requirements together. Product imagery does not identify the products used in the lighting concepts.
Try both positions with a sample. The aim is useful light across the preparation area while hiding the source from normal views. Cabinet depth and reflective finishes can change the best position.
A profile offers a deliberate mounting detail and room for a diffuser. Check the chosen strip’s installation requirements, width, connectors and thermal needs; a strip that looks continuous may still benefit from a protected, serviceable installation.
Separated sections can be planned with suitable cable links. Measure the cable route and discuss voltage drop, connection access and heat exposure with the installer. Do not run strip through a hot area simply to make the line continuous.
Choose a dimmable combination of strip, driver and controller. An existing wall dimmer is not automatically compatible. Tell us how you want to operate the lighting so the components can be checked together.
