Under-cabinet lighting is one of the highest-impact kitchen upgrades relative to its cost, dramatically improving task lighting on countertops while also adding ambient warmth to the space. Here is what installation actually involves, from the licensed electricians at EZSMART, serving Toronto and the GTA.
LED options from brands like Philips or those available at Home Depot and Rona are widely used.
This work should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with Electrical Safety Authority standards.
Is under-cabinet lighting worth adding after a renovation?
Yes, though it is more complex to add without disrupting existing backsplash or cabinet interiors. Doing it during a renovation is easier.
Can under-cabinet lighting be dimmed?
Yes, with compatible dimmable LED fixtures and a compatible dimmer switch.
Are plug-in under-cabinet lights a viable option?
They can work for shorter runs, though hardwired installation is generally cleaner and more reliable.
