Two Installation Methods for Surface Mounted LED Channels
Surface Mounted LED Light Channels can be installed in two ways: exposed mounting and concealed mounting. Here are the features of each installation type:
1. Exposed Mounting
Exposed LED light channels are directly fixed to the surface, making installation easy and maintenance accessible. This installation style keeps both the LED strip and channel visible, offering decorative appeal and flexibility. It’s ideal for applications where structural modifications to walls or furniture are not desired.
Features:
-
Easy Installation: No need for reserved space; simply fix the channel directly. Common mounting methods include screws or adhesive, making it ideal for quick setups.
-
Easy Maintenance and Replacement: Since the channel and LED strip are exposed, they can be easily maintained or replaced if issues arise without altering the structure.
-
Decorative Appeal: The appearance and lighting effect of the LED channel become part of the decor, making it suitable for spaces where the lighting effect is on display, adding to the space’s aesthetic.
-
High Flexibility: Can be installed on various surfaces such as walls, under cabinets, display shelves, and bookshelves.
Applications:
-
Under-cabinet Lighting: Provides task lighting in kitchens or workspaces, with easy adjustments and maintenance.
-
Display Case Lighting: Enhances product visibility in display cabinets or shelves, with light directed on items to enhance presentation.
-
Bookshelf or Shelf Lighting: In home decor or study areas, exposed channels provide soft lighting to highlight items while adding ambiance.
-
Store Display Lighting: Used in stores and exhibitions to highlight displayed items while creating a modern decorative effect.
2. Concealed Mounting
Concealed LED light channels are also surface-mounted but are typically hidden within the ceiling or furniture structures. The light is diffused evenly from the concealed channel, avoiding direct exposure of the LED strip. This approach emphasizes simplicity and even lighting, ideal for spaces that require hidden light sources to achieve a minimalist design.
Features:
-
High Aesthetic Appeal: Concealed mounting hides the channel, achieving a "see the light, not the source" effect. Only the light is visible, preserving the overall decor style, which is common in minimalist designs.
-
Uniform Lighting: With the strip and channel hidden within the structure, this setup effectively reduces glare from direct light, providing softer, more even illumination to enhance ambiance.
-
Ideal for Modern Designs: Concealed mounting is popular in modern residential and commercial spaces, adding a touch of sophistication.
Applications:
-
Ceiling Lighting: Recessed within ceilings to create a soft lighting effect, ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, and other spaces needing comfortable light.
-
Wall Concealed Lighting: Commonly used in bedrooms, hallways, and feature walls, it highlights wall designs without disrupting the overall visual flow.
-
Cabinet Lighting: In kitchens, wardrobes, or cabinets, concealed LED channels within cabinet structures provide interior lighting for everyday convenience.
-
Storefront or Display Lighting: Used in commercial spaces for lighting displays or storefronts, it illuminates items discreetly without showing the light source, creating an attractive environment.
