LED Profiles

Welcome to our LED profiles collection—the perfect companion for your LED strip lights! Looking to take your lighting project to the next level? You've come to the right place.

Our aluminium LED profiles (also known as LED extrusions or channels) are the professional's choice for creating sleek, polished lighting installations. They're not just about looks, though—these clever little housings protect your LED strips, improve their performance, and help them last longer too.

Whether you're sprucing up your kitchen with under-cabinet lighting, adding some oomph to your retail display, or transforming a commercial space, our LED profiles will give your project that perfect finishing touch.

From surface-mounted options for quick installations to recessed profiles for that seamless, built-in look—we've got styles to suit every project and budget. With a variety of sizes, depths, and finishes available, you'll find exactly what you need to bring your lighting vision to life.

Our profiles come complete with diffusers that soften those LED dots into a smooth, continuous line of light. No more harsh spots or uneven illumination—just gorgeous, professional lighting that'll have everyone asking who did your installation!

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly are LED profiles?

LED profiles are specially designed aluminium channels that house your LED strip lights. Think of them as the perfect home for your LED strips! They protect the strips from damage, help dissipate heat (making your LEDs last longer), and transform those individual LED dots into a smooth, continuous line of light thanks to the diffuser cover.

Do I really need a profile for my LED strips?

While you can install LED strips without profiles, we strongly recommend using them. Without a profile, you'll see individual LED dots rather than a smooth light line, plus your strips will be exposed to dust, moisture and physical damage. Profiles also help manage heat better, which means your LED strips will last significantly longer. For a professional finish that performs better, profiles are definitely worth it!

Which profile should I choose for my project?

This depends on where and how you're installing your lighting. For under-cabinet lighting, our surface or corner profiles work brilliantly. For a more discreet look, recessed profiles can be built into walls, ceilings or furniture. For bathrooms or outdoor areas, look for our waterproof options. Not sure? Give us a ring—we're always happy to help you choose!

Can I cut LED profiles to size?

Absolutely! We stock profiles in standard lengths of 1m and 2.5m, but they can easily be cut to your exact requirements using a standard hacksaw or mitre saw. Just measure carefully and take your time for the best results.

Do LED profiles come with everything I need?

Most of our profiles come with a diffuser as standard. End caps, mounting clips and other accessories are often available separately, allowing you to customise your setup. Check the product description for details on what's included with each profile.

Are your LED profiles available in different colours?

Yes! Our most popular finish is anodised aluminium (silver), but we also offer black and white options for many of our profiles. These colours help your lighting installation blend seamlessly with your décor or stand out as a feature—whatever you prefer!

Do you sell waterproof LED profiles?

We certainly do! Our waterproof LED profiles are perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, outdoor areas, or any space where moisture might be present. These profiles come with specialised sealing to keep water away from your LED strips.

How do I install LED profiles?

Most of our profiles can be installed using the included mounting clips, or with a strong adhesive backing for smooth surfaces. Recessed profiles require a groove to be cut in your installation surface. We provide detailed installation guides with all our profiles, making DIY installation straightforward even for beginners.
