Linear LED Fixtures for under-cabinet lighting should always be slightly smaller than the overall length of the cabinet. We recommend you mount your linear LED fixtures 1" in from the front.

Spacing: LED Puck lights should be spaced 12" to 18" apart. Another good way to determine mounting locations for LED Puck lights is to center them along the cabinet doors.

  • Warm White 3000K: Warm White is our most popular color temperature, it adds warmth to a room. Warm White is closet to a traditional incandescent bulb. Warm lighting enhances red tones but can desaturate green and blue tones. Warm White brings out the richness in natural wood burls and grains.
  • Natural White 4500K: Natural White is a neutral tone of white lighting. It goes with any space and offers maximum versatility. Natural white neither enhances or desaturates any tones.
  • Bright White 6500K: Bright White offers stark white lighting, some perceive bright white color temperatures to have a very light blue hue. Bright white lighting enhances blue and green tones, but can desaturate red and orange tones. It is best suited for modern, minimalist design schemes.
