Task Lighting

Focused lighting installed beneath wall cabinets or inside cabinets to illuminate countertop work surfaces, making food preparation, cooking, and reading recipes easier and safer. Under-cabinet task lighting is available in LED strip, LED puck, fluorescent, and xenon types. It is typically wired during cabinet installation and controlled by a separate switch. Task lighting also enhances the kitchen's ambiance and highlights the backsplash design.
