Backlit Kitchen Cabinets
Warm up your kitchen with more than the oven by installing backlighting in your kitchen cabinets. Soft or low wattage lighting can help create a warm ambiance in your kitchen. For years, cabinet lighting was primarily placed under the cabinets to provide light to the counter top surface. More homeowners are adding interior cabinet lights to glass front kitchen cabinets to illuminate items on shelves and create an additional design element.
There are two primary types of interior kitchen cabinet lighting, strip lighting and puck lighting. It is recommended that interior cabinet lighting have its own power source; however, you can purchase automatic or touch sensor cabinet lights. The addition of interior lighting won’t add much to the electricity bill but it will add warmth and beauty to your kitchen.
