Hi All,
I have went to ask a few KC companies and most of them do not provide lightings for the cabinets. Do anyone of you know where I can get lightings for my cabinets / wardrobes?
Thanks.

Where to find lighting contractor? Those normal lighting shops i think they dun have.. They normally suggest put t5 lights.
I actually getting my friend to do the electrical works and i get all the lights but it seems not easy to find lights for cabinets.. |

QUOTE(jforjean @ Oct 4 2012, 11:56 AM) I'm always curious, why people like to put light in tv panel/ kitchen cabinet/ or even behind the mirror.. I agree. I am not putting those "blue"/ "green" / "red" lights. Just looking for under the cabinet lights but not those exposed t5 lights. Need some casing to at least cover it. Found a shop that has all these lightings for cabinets and nice rather than all those cheapo looking but expensive lights at light shops. That is y i don't want to go to any light shop.Hmmmmm, especially put eye balls or halogen inside the kitchen cabinet, kitchen is for cooking not display cabinet.. it's HOME not SHOWROOM... anyway, it's just my 2 cents |

QUOTE(bobadlin @ Oct 5 2012, 11:23 AM) in some cases...the wall cabinet overshadow the light from the ceiling.. You are right!! Spot on! hence some parts under it, not lit properly.. therefore, its not a problem to have extra lighting under it... i like it!! hehehhee I only have 2 downlight above. I am not putting lighting inside the cabinet but below it might need light. Sometimes I dont plan to on the downlight but only the light under the cabinet will do. I got some recomendation to get those strip LEDs and put it under the cabinet. They say it is bright enough. If got leftover LEDs then can put above the cabinets also. Then my kitchen got pimped!! |

QUOTE(lady elle @ Oct 12 2012, 02:05 AM) For eyeball, do you need to make a hole in the cabinet for those lights? I think t5 s better, just small holes will be made to hold the light. Correct me if I am wrong.QUOTE(RickOoi @ Oct 12 2012, 10:09 AM) I also like to have some lightings underneath the top KC. Went to Ikea yesterday, and they do have those (LED I think) lightings for sale, didn't check out the price though. If put T5, I think best if box it up and have some glass cover beneath the light? Or else it the aesthetic appeal may not be there? If boxed up the t5, it not only give u the aesthetic appeal, also for protection just in case u spalsh some water. I am sure u have sink at ur kitchen. There might be risk there. Well, me and my worries.. I will be checking out in ikea this weekend just to compare the prices. |
