A surface mount LED channel is an aluminum extrusion designed to be installed directly onto a finished surface, such as a wall, ceiling, or the underside of a cabinet. Unlike recessed channels that require a groove or cutout, these profiles offer a simple, versatile solution for adding professional linear lighting to any existing space. They are the perfect choice for retrofits and projects where cutting into surfaces is not an option.

Our surface mount profiles offer the ideal combination of ease of installation and high-end aesthetic, making them a favorite for both DIY enthusiasts and professional contractors.

- Ultimate Versatility: Add sleek, modern lighting anywhere. These channels can be mounted on wood, drywall, tile, or stone, making them adaptable for virtually any room or application.
