LED strips, puck lights, ceiling fixtures and smart switching compared for brightness, ease, cost and look.
Good lighting transforms a pantry. LED strips under shelves wash light down onto items, puck lights highlight display shelves, and a ceiling fixture gives general illumination. Door switches and motion sensors make lights turn on with the door, and dimmers add mood. In Nashville homes, from closets with one dim bulb to new walk-ins with none at all, lighting is one of the most noticeable improvements you can make.
We help you match the lighting to the pantry. Plug-in and battery systems suit closets and renters, while hardwired lighting is best for walk-ins and remodels. Warm white, around 2700 to 3000 kelvin, feels inviting and shows food naturally. We also look at where shadows fall, since light from the front of each shelf reveals the back. Any hardwired work is done by a qualified electrician, and we coordinate it with the carpentry.
