LED Light Channel with Diffuser Lens for Custom Floating Shelf

Your design may call for lighting under the or above your display area. This is a popular aesthetic and while we don’t sell lighting itself, we will prepare your shelves either for puck lights or LED strips. 

We offer a routed channel with a diffuser lens that we will flush mount into your custom shelves, leveling up your design even further! Our channel will fit many of the strips available today, the inside dimension is 11/16” wide x 5/16” deep. The cost for this addition is $35 each channel.

You may specify front edge, back edge, or center position. Unless specified otherwise, we cut the channel 2″ from the front edge of the shelf and terminates 1″ in from the ends of the shelf which intersects with the pocket for the steel bracket which in in a typical installation allows enough space to route a wire to the back edge of the shelf.

Two important things to have in mind when planning your installation:

1) The wiring to connect this sort of lighting is typically for use inside kitchen cabinetry and the like, and isn’t building code-acceptable for installation in a wall cavity unless encased in solid conduit.

2) Just about all LED strips must be plugged into a transformer or driver, so you’ll need to find a serviceable location for the driver.

We can install the channel or drill for pucks in any type of our wood shelves.
