If you want to improve your kitchen’s organization and efficiency, installing lighting inside the cabinets can help keep things in order. By lighting up the interior, you’ll be able to see exactly what you have in your kitchen.

Organizing your kitchen cabinets—and maintaining that level of organization—can be a tough task in any circumstance. However, it’s much harder if you literally can’t see what you’re doing. That’s why one of the most surprisingly useful upgrades to your kitchen is adding lighting inside your cabinets to accent what’s inside or illuminate workspaces.

Best Kitchen Cabinet Lighting Fixtures

There are a variety of creative cabinet lighting options that you can use in and around your kitchen cabinets. Plus, it can be fairly simple to customize one or more of the various options in order to perfectly light up your kitchen.

Task Lighting vs. Accent Lighting Inside Cabinets

When designing your kitchen and inside cabinet lighting scheme, keep the purpose of the lighting in mind. Do you need the light for accents or ambiance only, or do you need to shed some light on the tasks at hand? 

If you want to showcase or accent what’s inside an open cabinet or highlight a space, you may not need especially bright bulbs or serious illumination. On the contrary, for task lighting, you’ll likely want to choose something bolder and brighter to help you see what you’re doing in the kitchen (or anywhere else).

1. Puck Lighting

These small canister lights resemble miniature spotlights that can be mounted to nearly any surface or recessed for a more seamless appearance. You can use puck lights to light up a countertop or the inside of cabinets. Place them 8 to 12 inches apart below your cabinets or center them behind a cabinet door to light up your kitchen with a scalloped or spotlight effect.

Puck lighting inside or around your glass-front or open kitchen cabinets is an excellent way to showcase some of your favorite pieces, such as a unique serving platter or glassware collection.

2. Strip Lighting or Bar Lighting

Strip lighting or bar lighting is exactly what it sounds like: strips of light designed to fit your cabinets. This kind of lighting provides a wide and even beam of light, making for an excellent way to illuminate open or glass-front cabinets.

Bar lights or strip lights are typically used for under-cabinet lighting but they also work well to light up the interiors of cabinets for ease of use and organizational purposes.

3. Rope Lighting, Ribbon Lighting, or Tape Lighting

These are long clear flexible tubes covering a string of incandescent or LED light bulbs that illuminate areas with a soft wash of ambient light.

Often used for accent lighting, since they are not as bright as puck lights or strip lights, rope lights are available in a variety of lengths and are fairly simple to place. In fact, LED tape lights or ribbon lights typically have a peel-and-stick backing that allows you to affix them to kitchen cabinets (or anywhere else) quickly and easily.

This aspect, along with their relative affordability, makes tape lighting, ribbon lighting, or rope lighting popular with homeowners, interior designers, and remodelers. However, the plastic tubing used in rope lights may become discolored over time and can be difficult to wire in place. 

With ribbon LED lights—as in most things home improvement related—you get what you pay for, with high-end LED lights lasting longer and shining brighter. Tape lights with incandescent bulbs are also often bright and may be easier to wire and more customizable.

Best Light Bulbs for Kitchen Cabinet Lighting

Once you have the fixtures for your inside cabinet lighting in place, you need to consider the type of bulbs that work best for your kitchen situation and the amount of illumination you prefer.  

You should also consider the amount of heat the bulbs emit since that may affect the contents of your cabinets, as well as whether you need them for accent lighting or task lighting.

1. Fluorescent Light Bulbs

While fluorescent lighting fell out of popularity due to the annoying flickering and humming accompanied by unnatural brightness, these cool-toned bulbs have been improved and are now cost-effective, energy-efficient, and easy to install. 

However, you can’t dim fluorescent lights, but their brightness does make these bulbs suitable for task lighting.

2. Halogen Light Bulbs and Xenon Light Bulbs

The natural glow of these incandescent light bulbs has made them preferable to fluorescents. You can dim both xenon and halogen light bulbs, resulting in a warm, flattering light. 

Halogen bulbs give off a lot of heat and use more electricity than alternatives, but they are fairly inexpensive. On the other hand, xenon bulbs cost more but last significantly longer (around 6,000 to 10,000 hours versus halogen’s 2,500+ hours) and use less electricity, making them a good choice for both task lighting and accent lighting.

3. LED Lighting

Homeowners and designers are choosing LED lights with increasing frequency because they are both long-lasting—many are rated for 50,000+ hours or six years of continuous light—and energy-efficient.

They do not emit significant amounts of heat and you can dim them to various levels. While LED inside cabinet lights may cost more than alternative options, this price can be offset by savings on electricity and infrequent bulb replacements.

LED lights are available in pucks, strips, or ropes (also referred to as tapes or ribbons), and they range in color from classic white to fun colors like red, blue, pink, or anything else you might want.

Best Kitchen Cabinet Lighting Installation Methods

Once you have your cabinet lights picked out, you need to install them. If you’re relatively handy and inclined to DIY, you can certainly install inside cabinet lighting yourself. Battery-powered strip, tape, or puck lighting is particularly easy to install. However, if you’d rather leave things up to the professionals, a general contractor or home maintenance professional near you can likely do the job for a few hundred dollars.

1. Hardwired Inside Cabinet Lighting

Hardwiring your lights is often the ideal way to set up lighting in your cabinets since there are no dangling cords to contend with and no batteries to replace, and you can use nearly any sort of bulb or fixture. 

While you can easily change the bulbs in existing hardwired fixtures yourself, if you need to install new hardwired lighting in your cabinets, that’s a project best left to professional electricians or cabinet contractors in your area.

2. Plug-In Inside Cabinet Lighting

This DIY solution for inside cabinet lighting is simple as long as you have readily accessible outlets. You can get plug-in lights in nearly every style of fixture and type of bulb and they don’t require cutting holes in your walls or otherwise dealing with the electrical wiring in your home.  

While you will have visible cords, if you have electrical outlets inside your cabinets or behind the counter, you can disguise the cords with cord covers and use small clips to secure them neatly in place. Placing the cord behind countertop appliances like espresso makers or stand mixers also helps.

3. Battery-Powered Inside Cabinet Lighting

Battery-powered cabinet lighting is generally only available in the form of LED or incandescent puck lights. This makes it a solid option if you only need a couple of lights and don’t want to spend too much time, effort, or money on inside cabinet lighting. 

You will need to place each light separately (they usually have stick-on backing) and deal with replacing batteries on a regular basis, but the ease and efficiency of installation is undeniable and you can add a battery-powered puck light just about anywhere.

What Is the Best Inside Cabinet Lighting for Your Kitchen?

The sort of lighting you need in your cabinets depends on your goals for the kitchen’s appearance and your needs for task lighting or similar improvements. What’s more, different types of inside kitchen cabinet lighting may be required in various areas of the kitchen. 

Consider whether you need task lighting to help you get things done or simply accent lighting to highlight your style or a combination of both to best illuminate your cabinets. Brightness, the complexity of installing various fixtures, power usage, energy efficiency of the lighting, and cost should play into the final selection.

10 mood or task illuminations |

It’s worth incorporating kitchen cabinet lighting ideas into a kitchen design. They can be part of the layers of illumination that make a kitchen a functional room in which to prepare food, but also allow a change of atmosphere for dining and welcoming guests.

Lighting kitchen cabinets can be a practical solution so it is easy to locate items when preparing and cooking food, but they can also make a display of items such as stemware or china in glass-fronted cabinets, so they’re always worth considering as an element of your kitchen ideas.

We’ve collected lighting ideas for kitchen cabinets to inspire along with advice from experts that will assist in realizing its practical and aesthetic benefits. 

Kitchen cabinet lighting ideas

Successful kitchen lighting ideas – and the scheme overall – include ambient or background lighting, task lighting, and feature or accent lighting, so when you are planning kitchen lighting, bear in mind that kitchen cabinet lighting ideas can act as task or as accent lighting. 

1. Backlight the cabinets

To create an eye-catching feature for a kitchen, consider backlighting your kitchen cabinets, which will create a soft glow behind what’s on show. 

‘With kitchens being the hub of our homes we design our furniture to be both highly functional and also to look beautiful both in the day and at night,’ says Richard Moore, design director, Martin Moore .

‘This cupboard not only provides capacious storage for wine glasses, wine, china and cutlery, but we have backed the piece with exquisite backlit faux onyx so it adds a sparkling focal point when guests gather for drinks and dinner. ’

2. Change the mood with adjustable cabinet lighting

Like, kitchen wall lighting ideas, lights in kitchen cabinets can be used to create a subtle mood. So, think about selecting kitchen cabinet lighting ideas that allow fine adjustment. This  SieMatic SLX PURE range kitchen has a sophisticated LED cabinet lighting system. 

‘The user can create a three-dimensional effect by changing the tone and brightness of the LED lighting system, which in turn also transforms the kitchen space atmosphere and mood,’ explains Helena Myers, director of The Myers Touch .

3. Speed up the morning routine

Lighting inside a pantry cabinet can make the early morning routine in a family house a little smoother with cereal boxes and other breakfast favorites easy to grab and prepare. 

‘I suggest adding a sensor to the doors, so that when they open, the lights turn on and when not in use and the doors are closed, the lights automatically turn off,’ says Allison Lynch, senior design consultant at Roundhouse .  

4. Showcase stemware

Exploit kitchen cabinet lighting ideas for the storage for stemware. Lighting glass-fronted cabinets turns these essentials into a feature of the room as well as keeping them readily accessible, but free of dust. Glass shelves inside the cabinet allow the light to be transmitted from the top of the cabinet to the lower levels.

Follow the example shown here by specifying sufficient wall cabinets for this purpose to arrange glasses so they aren’t crammed together. 

5. Provide a beautiful backdrop

Consider the backdrop of the cabinetry that will be lit in your kitchen. Lighting can bring out the best in wood used within open-fronted cabinets, showing off its color, grain, and subtle sheen – in fact, these are great lighting ideas for small kitchens, enhancing space subtly by creating depth.

Equally, the lighting will highlight favorites in the room. ‘Adding integrated mood lighting ensures your finest pieces are never forgotten, says Tom Howley , design director at the eponymous company. ‘It also provides an alternative ambient light source when you’re enjoying a romantic dinner or cocktails with friends.’ 

6. Put cabinet lighting on a separate switch

When you are working out the answer to the question, 'how much light does my kitchen need?', it's really worth considering that not all lights need to be on at the same time – and that your needs will change, depending on how you are using your kitchen. So, ensuring kitchen cabinetry lighting can be operated independently of other lighting in the room to enable changes of atmosphere when the space is being used for different purposes is vital.

‘By putting the cabinetry lights on their own switch, you can turn off the ceiling lights and keep a lovely warm glow from within the cabinetry,’ says Allison Lynch. ‘There may be items on shelving that you want to showcase so lighting from above washing down a dresser unit is worth considering. ’

7. Introduce illuminated niches

(Image credit: Ledbury Studio)

Modern kitchen lighting ideas allow for an element of surprise. Consider cabinets with illuminated niches as part of a kitchen design. They can take the place of shelving as a place for decorative display in the room. 

‘If you covet open shelving but don’t want to sacrifice wall cupboards, another option is open compartments on the island,’ says Charlie Smallbone, founder of Ledbury Studio . ‘It’s the best of both worlds, with open space to display pretty things combined with closed cupboards for storing less attractive essentials.

‘In this kitchen I wanted the small niches on the island to make a big impact. To achieve this, LED lighting was built into the furniture to cast an even glow across what is being displayed. In my opinion, this gentle lighting effect really comes into its own when the other lights in the room are switched off. ’

8. Expand the kitchen’s dimensions with cabinet lighting

(Image credit: Life Kitchens)

If a kitchen is relatively small, or the storage requirements large with extensive wall cabinetry required as part of the design, kitchen cabinet lighting ideas can be employed to make it appear larger. Wall cabinets with internal lighting will add visual depth to the room by providing a view right to the wall on which they are hung. 

The golden rules in this scenario? Dedicate these cabinets to the most attractive pieces in the kitchen, which might include glasses, platters, and even cookbooks. Don’t overfill them either to preserve an uncluttered view.

9. Illuminate a kitchen in a cabinet

A cabinet can contain an entire kitchen in a small home, or a contemporary open property where the kitchen is completely concealed when not in use, and here adequate cabinet lighting is essential. 

For this ‘secret’ kitchen, the cabinet lighting is task illumination, allowing preparation and cooking to take place safely. The light source is reflected by the red glass backsplash, which boosts illumination levels for the counters below.

10. Let shelves shine

Lighting individual shelves can fufill a practical role. ‘Kitchen cabinetry lighting is very important nowadays and is essential when designing a kitchen,’ advises Allison Lynch. ‘It’s deemed as “task” lighting as it helps you to more easily find what you’re looking for within the cabinet when working in the kitchen or pantry.’

In this pantry as well as making what’s on display easily retrievable, the lighting creates a warm glow, drawing the eye to this feature of the room.

How do you light inside a cabinet?

LED light strips or puck lights are both excellent options to use inside a cabinet. Puck lights are small spotlights which can be mounted on a surface or recessed. They can be a good choice to create accent lighting, showcasing a display of glasses, or favorite china, for example. Strip lighting can perform the same task, but it’s also an excellent way to illuminate the interior of a cabinet to allow you to locate items easily. 

It’s preferable that kitchen cabinet lighting is hardwired to create a seamless finish. An alternative is to consider battery-powered designs, which could be fitted without the need to call in a professional electrician.

Are LED lights good for kitchen cabinets?

How to choose kitchen lighting? LED lights are a good choice for kitchen cabinets. They are energy efficient, have a long lifespan, and don’t get hot. Another advantage of LED lights is that they can be dimmed, making them ideal if your kitchen cabinet lighting is part of the room’s feature lighting. They also come in different colors as well as white, which can make the room’s lighting design more interesting when they’re used for glass-fronted cabinets.

Illumination for the kitchen - how to make it?

Illumination for the kitchen: types, features, DIY

A modern kitchen is not only beautiful, fashionable furniture and functional household appliances that facilitate and speed up cooking or, for example, washing dishes, but also competent multi-level lighting. Today, designers, developing kitchen interiors, pay great attention to the illumination of the working area, the space inside cabinets and drawers. Illumination of furniture from below creates a feeling of lightness, airiness of the interior. Often, furniture makers offer their own options for lighting the kitchen, supplying kitchen sets with already built-in lamps to the market. If such an “option” is not provided on your furniture, and the kitchen lighting is far from ideal, you can correct the situation by making the kitchen lighting yourself.

First you need to decide on the type of backlight. The working area of ​​the kitchen can be illuminated with spotlights, linear lamps and LED strips. The choice of the type of backlight for self-production must be done by objectively evaluating your skills and capabilities. If they are generally absent in this area, it is better to invite the master. If you have never done anything like this, but are still eager to fight, we advise you to make kitchen lighting using LED strip: it is easy to install, it looks great, it works efficiently with the right selection of components.

Kitchen spotlights

This type of lighting is aesthetic. Spots can be cut into the bottom of hanging cabinets or a special false bottom can be attached to install them. Neatly mounted lamps look spectacular. The brightness and color spectrum of the backlight can be adjusted by choosing lamps - halogen, LED, etc. You can not use incandescent lamps, as they, together with light, intensively generate thermal energy and get very hot, which makes them a fire hazard.

In addition to mortise spot spots, you can use overhead-type lamps to equip the lighting in the kitchen. They are diverse in shape and easier to install, they can be used as single lamps or grouped in one line, in which case the distance between them should be 30-45 cm.

Illumination of the kitchen with spotlights looks impressive, its intensity can be adjusted not only by choosing lamps, but also, for example, by installing a relay on the switch. The direction of the light flux can be changed if you choose luminaire models with a rotary mechanism. The design of spotlights is diverse, so you can easily choose spots designed in a style that matches the style of your kitchen set in a regular or online store.

Linear type illumination

Linear lighting is usually placed in the kitchen right under the hanging cabinets placed above the table and sink. Often used for its arrangement fluorescent lamps. They are placed under the bottom of the cabinets in one line at a minimum interval from each other. You can attach them to the bottom of the cabinets with ordinary screws. Installation is simple and does not require cutting niches, as is the case with mortise-type spots.

Such a backlight provides a uniform and sufficiently intense illumination. The luminous flux is directed equally in all directions, and if left as is, this can cause some discomfort for those who are in the kitchen. To avoid this, the light flux of the backlight must be redirected. To do this, install a reflective border screen on the outside of the lamp, it can be beautifully decorated and turned into another element of kitchen decor.

Lamps for such illumination are usually chosen with a G13 base, the length can be different - 60, 90, 120 or 150 cm. Manufacturers offer models of both traditional and original designs. The advantages of such a backlight include moderate power consumption with good brightness of the light flux, long service life, and a different spectrum of light. Linear fluorescent lighting is connected to an electrical network with a voltage of 220 V. The minus of fluorescent lamps is their mercury content. This increases the importance of careful operation and requires specific conditions for the disposal of such lamps after their failure. In addition, fluorescent lamps are characterized by a pulsating glow, which can adversely affect the human eye.

A more progressive and fashionable solution for linear kitchen lighting is the installation of LED beams. These linear lighting devices are made in the form of tubes, their design is quite simple. Such lamps are installed on fixing magnetic clips mounted on furniture. Tubular beams give bright intense light, they can be used to optimize the illumination of any area of ​​the kitchen. Their most common application is fastening to furniture above the kitchen worktop. Light beams serve longer than other lamps, but their cost is very high.

Kitchen lighting with LED strips

A popular kitchen lighting solution, which is often chosen by both trendy interior designers and home craftsmen who successfully manage without their services, is to illuminate the work surface and other areas of the kitchen with LED strip. This spectacular and practical way of lighting is universal, but it is simply optimal for rooms with a high level of humidity and frequent temperature fluctuations of different amplitudes - for kitchens. In addition, such a backlight is durable, consumes a minimum of electricity, and endures power surges in the network. You can buy LED strip everywhere and at an affordable price.

The brightness level of LED strips can vary greatly. The glow power can be easily adjusted using the remote control or touch panel. In addition, manufacturers, in addition to strips with white LEDs, offer LED strips of other tones: red and yellow, blue and green. This opens up new possibilities for kitchen interior design.

LED strips can be mounted anywhere: on the wall, on the ceiling, on the bottom of kitchen cabinets. Staples, double-sided tape, reliable glue are used as fasteners. To equip the LED kitchen lighting, you can use special removable panels made of material of varying degrees of transparency. Their design provides for an internal shelf on which the tape is conveniently and easily attached. Among the options offered by manufacturers of such products, it is recommended to give preference to models with a high degree of protection - IP44 or more. The panels must be covered with a protective varnish or other composition of a similar effect. For the kitchen, models are often used, the size of the crystals of which is 50x50 or 50x75, they can also be arranged in two rows. You should not buy LED strips that are soldered in a tube for self-production of backlighting. Their service life is short, they quickly overheat, lose brightness and eventually burn out. To connect LED backlight strips to the power supply, you must purchase special adapters that provide the required voltage values.

DIY installation of kitchen lighting with LED strip

If you choose the type of lighting for the kitchen in order to install it yourself, then the most suitable option for this, as we have already said, is LED strip lighting. Efficient, aesthetic and the easiest to install.

What you need to prepare for work on the arrangement of kitchen lighting:

Instructions for self-installation of LED backlight using tapes:

  1. Take measurements of the required length of the LED strip using a construction tape measure. After that, cut the desired length of the tape from the roll with scissors and strip the extreme contacts by about 1-1.5 cm.

  2. Carefully solder two pieces of cable to the stripped contacts. After soldering is completed, the contacts should be insulated, this can be done using ordinary electrical tape or a convenient heat shrink tube.

  3. Stick adhesive tape on the corner or profile, install and fix the LED strip on it, remembering to remove the protective film from it. A transformer should also be installed at a short distance from the LED backlight.

  4. Before installing the transformer, you must first remove the casing from it. Then you need to solder the bare ends of the LED strip wire to it from the low voltage side. On the other hand, an electrical cable with a plug mounted on it must be connected to the transformer.

  5. Before mounting the LED backlight, the surface on which it will be installed must be thoroughly cleaned and degreased, using, for example, an alcohol solution or an effective cleaning agent.

  6. A plastic box, in which extra wires will fit, is installed inside the cabinet, which has become a platform for installing the backlight. The wires are pulled through a hole made in the bottom wall of the cabinet. They are fixed in the box, electrical mounting brackets.

  7. All backlight wires are laid to the place where the power supply will be mounted, for example, to the hood.

  8. The wires are connected in parallel: plus to plus, minus to minus.

  9. After connecting the backlight wires to the power supply, it remains only to equip it with a switch, and the backlight will be ready for use.

LED Strip Light Installation Recommendations

So that everything works out for you and the backlight becomes an effective and functional addition to the kitchen interior, consider the following tips and installation nuances:

Since the installation of the backlight requires work with electricity, do not forget about safety when doing it. If you still have questions about making a backlight from an LED strip, you can watch training videos on the Internet that show the entire creation process, from the beginning to the moment the backlight is turned on.


Secrets of built-in lighting in the kitchen from the experts of the TRIO 9 salon0001

The advantages of built-in light cannot be overestimated. It is beautiful, comfortable, functional, and it is the lighting that will create a unique atmosphere in your kitchen.

Kitchen led under cabinet lighting

When choosing kitchens made in Italy and Germany, you can immediately order any lighting for the kitchen, whether it is lighting for the working area, wall cabinets or LED profile lighting. Any built-in lighting option will come with a factory warranty and impeccable performance.

Let's highlight several options for LED backlighting:

Work area design

As a rule, it is always necessary to form a zone of bright light for the workspace, since the main light is not enough. With the help of the LED strip, you can illuminate not only the countertop and hob area, but also the shelves where spices are stored, a cookbook is installed, etc.


Tip: Kitchen countertop lights can complement your chosen solution. Remember, if you're illuminating your work area, point your lights down! This will create additional comfort for your eyes.

Harmonization of space

Installing lighting in a modern kitchen solves the problem of inharmonious space. For example, high ceilings with a relatively small area are corrected by lighting in the kitchen above the wall cabinets. Thus, the space is visually limited, and it becomes more comfortable. The problem of low ceilings is solved in another way - lighting under wall cabinets: this way you can "raise" the upper base.

Here you can choose furniture and accessories from more than 10,000 items!

Choose a cuisine


Accent

With the help of LED lighting, you can place accents in your kitchen in such a way as to highlight the most beautiful areas. For example, shelves with glasses or hinged cabinets with glass doors, where an exclusive porcelain service is stored.

Tip: Many manufacturers offer the option of touch control for the backlight. The saturation of the light changes automatically when you bring your hand to the sensor.

Illumination of dark areas in the kitchen

The ideal solution is lighting in drawers and hinged bases. It is especially useful inside deep cabinets, because usually, in the absence of lighting, you have to look into them with a flashlight or mobile phone. It is convenient that the light inside always turns on automatically when you open the doors or pull out the drawers.


Important! If your kitchen is combined with the living room, and you often have guests, then this lighting will help you navigate without turning on the main light.

Creating different spaces in one

This interesting play with light is possible, for example, if you have high ceilings and several levels. Highlighting one or another, you can create a feeling of different spaces in the kitchen.

Kitchen zoning

If your kitchen is combined with a living room, then visually the entire cooking area can be “turned off” using directed streams of light or highlighting only the living area.


Creating an unusual and stylish kitchen

Your kitchen can "hover" above the floor thanks to the LED lighting under the plinth, it looks especially impressive if the light is reflected in the floor tiles. LED countertop lighting will create the feeling that the kitchen is hanging in the air without support. This solution is especially appropriate for a high-tech kitchen).

Built-in lighting in profiles (kitchen furniture handles) is popular - this solution accentuates the lower bases.


Kitchen LED lighting and supplies

It is worth considering that the backlight in combination with different materials gives a different effect.

  1. Mirrors perfectly reflect light, increasing its flow. If your high-end dishes are illuminated by LED and reflected in mirrors, this automatically expands the space.
  2. Transparent glass from illumination scatters glare, illuminated hinged cabinets with glass doors look especially beautiful, in which transparent glasses and glasses are stored
  3. Frosted glass, on the contrary, will create a feeling of soft diffused gentle and even mysterious light.

    4. Tip: It is good to store dishes not from the service behind frosted glasses - the outlines are blurred, and they seem the same.
