This may not help, so forgive me. I haven't tried the deco strip, but I'm installing an iPad rack like yours and am adding a block of wood to the underside of the cabinet's bottom shelf. It won't show as the doors of the cabinets extend a bit beyond the bottom shelf to hide the undercabinet lighting. There is room enough for both. Good luck!

I'm not sure about the hardware and extra height part of your question, it probably depends on where you position on the actual cabinet. You probably could mount it flush with the wall or mount it at the front of the cabinet too. The mount is clear so I don't even notice it.

Yes, the extra spacer did the trick (barely). We too have under counter lighting that wasn't a problem when installing.

I have not installed these on the sink side of our kitchen yet. However, I have thought about how I am going to do it. With an existing kitchen like ours, I'm going to install 2 separate light kits under each cabinet (left & right of sink). In a new kitchen install such as you are talking about, I would definitely install per the code for your area. I don't think that the 6 ft extension cable that you can get from LIGHTWIKI is rated for inside a wall (too thin & no protection from fire & other hazards). I hope that helps you.

In my application, we put the strips inside a box near the ceiling in a kitchen. The strips were laying on the top of a flat surface. The strips stuck pretty well where the surface was very clean, but did not stick well where there was any dust. The strips themselves are quite stiff. It takes a bit of work to get them really flat. Also, the individual LEDs are raised up from the surface of the strip, which probably would be a problem if your fingers came in contact. They are not particularly sharp, but the do have a very square edge.

If by "standard height" you mean 8 foot ceilings, then no, you do not need to order anything other than this unit. I have mine hanging over the kitchen sink. The pots do not hit my head and are so accessible to wash and recover. But I am only 5' 1" tall. You have to think about where you will be hanging the rack, how low the pots are that you will hang and where you will place the rack.I also ordered the ceiling covers though, just to give it a finished looked. I love this pot rack! I also ordered an extra set of hooks and I use all of the two sets of hooks on this rack.

mr. o'shea, I really like this light fixture, but now that it is installed in a corner under a cabinet i can't see the back. I checked several web sites for better pictures of the unit, but it is only shown in the box or from the part that you would normally see. The next best option is to go to a home depot (that's where they sell them around here) or another store that carries the light and open the box to get the information that you are looking for hands on before making a buying decision.

Nope, there is a trim kit to install it built-in in a cabinet, but it can't be just hung. There are venting slots that would be blocked. With the trim kit, and some shelving you could build a cabinet surround, but that does add 2in on the top and bottom.But I would not recommend this unit anyway, it has poor reliability, mine broke after 15 month with a broken magnetron and inverter. And looking at reviews that is pretty common to happen.

Hi Rob, I attached these lights directly to the bottom of some Kraftmaid cabinets. The cabinets have a very smooth polyurethane finish. The tape is separating in a few spots. They haven't fallen off, but I question it for the long-term. Another method would be to router a grove in the bottom of your railing and insert a mounting channel (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0080IB4E0/ref=s9_simh_gw_p60_d2_i3?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf;_rd_s=desktop-4&pf;_rd_r=1H5XQQDR5387MRXBZRFV&pf;_rd_t=36701&pf;_rd_p=1970566842&pf;_rd_i=desktop), and put the lights in there. Search for 'mounting channel' on Amazon and you will find some options. Good luck! Hi Rob, I attached these lights directly to the bottom of some Kraftmaid cabinets.

I agree with all that responded. My stand has been great (50' TV) do know they can cause problems though. Be sure to use the proper screws, do not over tighten, you should be fine. AND I agree Sceptre customer service is fantastic! A+++ from personal experience.

I have a27" cabinet with one 12" light, two 12" will not fit, because of the connector between the two plus the power plug coming in the end. A 12 and a 6 may work If you feel the need for more light. 3 12" would not work with a 36" cabinet . Two 12" or add a 6" for more . The 12" light strip measures just over 11&3/4", add about 1&1/4" for the power plug, double that if you are continuing on to another cabinet, and the butt connector for two lights is about 5/8". Hope this was helpful

you could use them above your cabinets, however i don't think it will look right. i bought these for under my bar to shine down onto the brass foot rail. Another suggestion would be under your kitchen cabinets perhaps.

I have stacked one on top of another, it isn't a perfect fit and I only do it when all of my glasses are clean at the same time and I'm short on cabinet space. I sure wouldn't stack more than two together.

They are great shelves but I agree with Carly that they are much shorter than you expect. I have two, one on top of the other and to get the cabinet space that I was looking for I should have purchased three of them. I think your idea might possibly work but if it doesn't, you'd have to go up with them. Good luck!

We use ours as work station lights. They are mounted under the wall cabinets and light up the counter top beautifully. We used 3 x 18 inch led strips to light up 6 feet of counter. They are only 18 inches above the counter, but they are good and bright. I think you would be pleased with the effect at 30 inches above the counter.

I could not find anything in the instructions that mentioned a flush mount or how to mount the unit flush (against the ceiling) so I used the shortest drop rod.My ceiling height in the small bedroom I installed this unit in would not allow me to use the light kit as I would be bumping my head into it as it would hang too low.The ceiling fan works great without the light kit and looks very nice, but I would have preferred a light that I could have used. Also instructions for installing the fan without the light are not in the supplied instructions, you must get them online, which I found irritating. It's very simple, but it should be included on the instruction sheet.

I was missing a shelf and contacted the company. They responded super quick and I got the shelves. In today's world - they are a standup outfit and stand behind their products. Contact them....they'll help you.

Unfortunately the bottom rails when extended are approximately 1/8" above the base. I had a similar problem since my cabinets had a 1/4" lip. I solved it by cutting two each 1/4" X 2" strips of Poplar bought from my local Do It Yourself store. For you I would use 1/2" X 2" - easy fix and by the way - you will really like using the roll out drawers.

Our's are mounted at the front of the cabinets which puts them over the middle of the countertops. The lip at the bottom of the cabinets then shields the lights from view. They give plenty of light for that setup, but can't say for sure how they would do from the back. I would guess they would be OK but they might be too visible. Hope that is of some use.
