Hi,

We are getting fitted wardrobes, with regular (non sliding doors).

We will have a top shelf and a rail below. In one of them it will be a double rail (high raio and low rail).

Lighting in the wardrobe would be great.

Any suggestions please?

I like the look of this, so the light isn't blinding you.


I am not so keen on the following as think it might be a bit blinding

Ikea do a good range or wardrobe light. They are price competitive with anything else out there and visually appealing / discreet.

Internal sensors are definitely the way to go so the lights only pop on when you open the doors. We went through a similar design phase for our master suite and used The Heritage Wardrobe Company for the build, they integrated recessed LEDs that stay hidden behind the frame.

It gives a nice glow to the clothes without hitting you in the face when you're half-asleep.

I've just ordered these sensors from AliExpress - not fully fitted yet but tested and worked great (i.e. any of the 4 sensors triggered the driver to turn on)

Waiting on this hanging rail to arrive, which will have 2 x 1m of LED strip run through it
