LED puck lights are compact, circular lighting fixtures designed to provide focused, targeted illumination in specific areas. Named for their small, hockey puck-like shape, these versatile puck lights utilize energy-efficient LED technology to deliver bright, consistent light while remaining discreetly hidden. They are primarily used for under cabinet puck lights, but are also perfect for highlighting glassware inside display cases, accentuating shelving, or creating defined pools of light on countertops.
Why Choose Puck Lights for Focused Illumination?
Puck lights offer unique advantages for accent and task lighting where concentrated light is needed:
- Focused Light Distribution: Unlike linear fixtures, LED puck lights deliver a concentrated beam, making them ideal for spotlighting cherished objects, fine china, or artwork inside cabinets.
- Aesthetic Versatility: Their small size allows for precise placement, giving you complete control over your puck lighting design. They provide a high-end, contemporary feel, especially when installed as recessed puck lights.
- Discreet Design: Whether you choose surface mount pucks (which are easily installed on the exterior) or the flush look of recessed puck lights, the fixture itself remains small and unobtrusive.
- Under Cabinet Puck Lights are highly energy efficient, offering the long lifespan and low heat output characteristic of LED technology.
Installation Options for Puck Lighting
Puck lighting offers several installation styles to fit different needs, from quick DIY jobs to permanent, custom cabinetry:
- Recessed Puck Lights: For the cleanest, most professional look, recessed puck lights are installed directly into a hole drilled in the cabinet base, sitting flush with the surface. This is the most permanent option.
- Surface Mount Pucks: Surface mount pucks are secured directly to the underside of the cabinet with screws or adhesive. They are the simplest to install and offer a great option for renters or quick DIY projects.
- Low Voltage vs. Plug-In Kits: LED puck lights are available in low voltage (12V/24V) systems requiring a remote driver, or plug-in kits (120V) that connect directly to a wall outlet for maximum convenience.
