Production of lighting for the wardrobe

Leonid: “I plan to make lighting for the wardrobe. Tell me, what kind of lighting can I use? ”

As practice shows, such a piece of furniture necessarily needs lighting, since the right things in the dark are difficult to find. Such work can be done independently without resorting to specialists. Big expenses are not required. This matter will take a minimum of time, and even a beginner will cope.

Not so long ago, halogen lamps were used for backlighting, but their minus is that they are very hot. This poses a certain danger - you can not only get a burn, but also spoil things. In addition, a fire may occur, as the materials used to make the furniture are flammable.

Widespread use of fluorescent lamps. Even if you do not turn off the lights for a long time, they will not heat up. They are installed not only inside, but also outside, mounted in the upper ledge.

The ideal option is automatic lighting: open the cabinet door - the light turns on, close - turn off.

LED illumination will not only transform your interior, but also will well illuminate the cabinet inside. It will cost more, but will pay for itself in the process of work, and electricity is also saved. It has many advantages: it serves for a long time, is compact, withstands shocks, it is possible to adjust the light intensity, is fireproof, works at low voltage, meets all fire safety standards, since it does not heat up and is environmentally friendly (there is no mercury in its composition). Currently, LED manufacturers guarantee uninterrupted lighting for seven years. This is a fairly long time.

In addition to the above lighting sources, fixtures with an integrated motion sensor are produced. It is better to prefer models with an ultrasonic sensor, in which case the light turns on when the door opens. Many professionals advise to think over the installation scheme in advance.
