Illuminating with under-cabinet lighting
If you’re tired of your kitchen feeling cramped and dull, then pelmet lights are here to change the game.
Wall units can often block overhead lighting, leaving the worktop below in shadow, especially when you’re standing in front of it. Under-cabinet kitchen lighting solves this problem by placing useful light exactly where it’s needed: directly above food prep areas and kitchen counters.
Sinks and hobs become easier to use, and you can keep a relaxing atmosphere when cooking at night, since you no longer have to rely on main, bright lighting to see what you’re doing.
Nowadays, modern LED under-cabinet lighting is slim, efficient, and available in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and colours, so it can be used as practical task lighting or as a way to add a bit of character to the home.
Why add lighting beneath kitchen cabinets?
LED under-cupboard lights are energy-efficient, with a lifespan of up to 50,000 hours, making them a powerful alternative to traditional bulbs. They’ll also save you money on your electricity bills, as they use much less energy than halogen or fluorescent bulbs.
Besides being an environmentally friendly alternative to old bulbs, since they can be recycled and don’t produce any toxic emissions, they’re also just great for improving the overall atmosphere and convenience of your kitchen.
Our under cupboard LED lights in the UK reduce shadows and dark spots in your kitchen, so you can cook and complete tasks without straining your eyes or having to turn the big lights on.
It also creates a more flexible, layered lighting scheme. Rather than relying on one bright overhead source, you can combine ceiling lights, pendants, and under-cupboard kitchen lights to suit different times of day, which is especially useful for open-plan kitchens.
Discreet fittings can also highlight a tiled splashback, bring out the detail in stone or timber worktops, and create a gentle line of light beneath the units. Used this way, ambient under cabinet lighting can make a kitchen feel warmer and more inviting without overpowering the space.
Uses beyond the kitchen
Besides being popular for kitchen cabinets, under-shelf lighting also comes in handy in other areas of the home. Some other great uses for them include:
- Utility room cupboards
- Bathroom cabinets
- Office shelves
- Bookcases
- Alcoves
- Display units
- Inside wardrobes or cupboards
- Pantries
- Workshops
- Garages
The list goes on! When it comes to using them solely for the kitchen, cupboard spotlights also look great when installed around a breakfast bar or kitchen counter, adding a decorative touch rather than a practical one.
Types of under-counter lights
Since there are so many different types of kitchen unit lighting to choose from, you can find something that suits your home perfectly.
LED strip lighting
Under cabinet LED strip lighting is a versatile choice for long or uneven cabinet runs.
It can produce a continuous line of light with fewer dark gaps, making it useful above worktops where even coverage is important. Plus they can be cut to any size you want.
Linkable striplights and light bars
Linkable under-cabinet lights are useful when several fittings need to run along the same cabinet line.
They just click together easily, creating an illusion of one long light for an uninterrupted effect.
Surface-mounted and recessed lights
Surface-mounted cabinet lights attach to the underside of the unit, making them a practical choice for retrofitting.
Slim panels and bars can be discreet from normal standing height, particularly when the cabinet has a front pelmet or trim, while recessed lights provide a flush, integrated look.
Find the right cabinet lighting for your project
Installing well-planned lighting beneath cabinets improves visibility and the atmosphere of your kitchen and makes better use of areas that overhead lighting can miss.
If you want more control over your setup, our dimmable LED lights allow you to adjust the brightness, colour, and temperature of your kitchen cabinet lighting, so you can tailor your kitchen to different needs.
Browse compact spotlights for a single unit to full-width strips for a long worktop, with plenty of options to suit old kitchens, renovations, and simple upgrades. If you’re unsure which type of lighting will work best with your space, our team is available to help you.

LED undercabinet lights are exactly what they sound like: lighting attached to the underside of your cabinets in the kitchen, utility room, or anywhere else you might have cupboards in your home.
When installed in kitchens, they are commonly used above worktops, sinks, and food preparation areas, but they can also provide display, accent, or low-level lighting elsewhere in the home.
They direct light onto the surface below, helping to reduce shadows and improve visibility, adding depth to the space.
Here at Light Supplier, we stock a wide range of under-cabinet lighting, designed to fit multiple styles of homes. This includes:
- Recessed lighting: designed to fit flush against the surface so there’s little distinction between the lights.
- Surface-mounted under-cupboard lighting: attach to the underside of your kitchen cabinets with little effort
- Under cabinet strip lighting: provides a full strip of lighting as opposed to a small area of lighting with the spotlights.
We also sell more unique options such as angled and triangular designs, linkable strip lights, flexible LED tape, and COB strip lighting. You can find mains-powered, low-voltage, colour-selectable, tunable, and dimmable options, so there’s something for every room.
Some products are straightforward for a confident DIYer to fit.
Battery-powered and plug-in lights generally require less electrical work, making them easier to install, while self-adhesive strip lighting is simple to position when the surface is clean and properly prepared, offering a quicker option.
However, if you don’t feel confident doing so, we always recommend getting a qualified electrician to install your lighting.
Yes! We sell a range of battery-operated options for cupboards and areas where a wired connection may be inconvenient, since they don’t require a cable running to a socket.
Battery-powered lights are ideal for rented properties, wardrobes, pantries, utility cupboards, and other spaces that only need occasional light or a temporary solution.
The lifespan depends on the product, how often it’s used, and how well you look after your light fixtures.
High-quality LED lights offer up to 50,000 hours of lighting, but heat, driver quality, ventilation, and electrical compatibility can affect performance, so make sure you choose the right ones.

Start by measuring the cabinet run and marking the position of each fitting.
Plan where the switch, driver, connectors, and cables will sit before drilling or attaching anything. Surface-mounted lights are usually screwed or clipped beneath the cabinet, while strip lighting may be fixed with adhesive backing or installed inside an extrusion.
Fixed mains connections should always be completed by a qualified electrician, so don’t attempt to install them yourself.
Warm white under cabinet lighting has a softer, slightly golden appearance that can make a kitchen feel cosy and relaxed. It complements timber, cream cabinetry, warm-toned stone, and traditional finishes, so it’s quite a popular choice for both modern and traditional interiors.
Cool white under cabinet lighting, however, looks brighter and crisper, adding a colder and sharper feel to the room. That’s why it works well in modern kitchens.
Dark, matt surfaces may need more output than pale, reflective ones, so take into consideration the colours of your kitchen and how large it is.
A bigger space may need brighter lighting so that it reaches further into dark corners. Compare lumens, but also check beam angle and spacing, as a high-output spotlight can still leave gaps.
Not always. Battery-operated and plug-in products can be installed without hardwiring, making them useful for quick upgrades and rented properties.
Many low-voltage lights connect to a driver that plugs into a standard socket.
Frequently Asked Answer
Yes! Many under-cabinet products can be dimmed, but they may require a specific LED driver, controller, or dimmer type to work properly.
Measure the usable length and depth beneath each cabinet rather than relying on the external unit size.
For light bars and linkable fittings, choose lengths that provide broad coverage while leaving room for cables and connectors.
Strip lighting can be more adaptable, but it must only be cut at the marked points. For spotlights, check the diameter, projection, and spacing.
Neither shape is automatically better. Triangle under cabinet lights have an angled body that can help throw light forwards across the worktop, making them useful when the fitting sits towards the rear of the cabinet.
On the other hand, square fittings can create a neat, contemporary appearance and may offer a wide, even spread depending on their lens, so it depends on what you need.
