HI,

I need to illuminate a corner cabeinet. Led strips.

The shelves are solid, and very tight, would need to be notched.

Has anyone lit one?

Two strips, one on each side?

Two strips on the door facing in?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,
I have used Sea gull lighting, under cabinet lighting. It’s totally customizable to whatever length you need. It’s a track that you snap in the LV wire then the small lamp holders. You can buy LED bulbs or halogen to snap in. If used correctly, you can eliminate and dark spots on the backsplash. It is a bit expensive.

LED tape.

I’ve been ordering from superbrightleds.com

Their prices are far less than what any local supplier has quoted me.

If the inside of the cabinet is anything other than white, I get the RGB strips and dial in a color that looks best and just leave the customer with an off/on switch.

A more red colored light tends to look better in darker colored cabinets. But it doesn’t “look” red, if that makes sense.

Consider either mounting on the sidewall of the cabinet or else on the underside of the shelves, with some sort of shield to prevent a direct sight line to the LEDs.
 
We use Solid Apollo LED tape light. Here's the one we use most.

We always install it in an aluminum channel. This is the one we use most.

We always install a dimmable driver.

They also offer recessed versions of the channel if you want it recessed in the shelf

For us it's very convenient because they're local but they also ship all over the place.
