A profile light is an LED strip set inside an aluminium channel with a diffuser cover, giving one clean, even line of light. It's used in false ceilings, coves, walls and under kitchen cabinets. Sizes, strips and samples are at our Periyamedu showroom.

Recessed profile lines running across a false ceiling

What is a profile light?

Three parts: an aluminium channel, an LED strip and a diffuser.

The channel pulls heat away from the strip, so it lasts longer. The diffuser hides the dots. The result is a line of light, not a row of points.

Recessed, surface or corner: which do you need?

  1. Recessed

    Sits flush in the false ceiling or wall. Plan it before the POP work.

  2. Surface

    Sticks or screws onto a finished ceiling, wall or cabinet.

  3. Corner

    Fits where two surfaces meet, like under a shelf edge.

  4. Inground

    For floors and outdoor paths, with a waterproof strip.

Choosing the LED strip, driver and colour

  • Strip

    120 or 240 LEDs per metre. More LEDs, smoother line.

  • Voltage

    12V for short runs, 24V for longer ones.

  • Colour

    3000K warm, 4000K neutral or 6000K cool.

  • Driver

    Sized to the total watts of every strip it runs, plus some headroom.

Design ideas for ceilings, walls and kitchens

  • Ceiling lines

    Long recessed lines instead of rows of downlights.

  • Cove

    Hidden light washing up onto the ceiling.

  • Wall grooves

    A vertical line beside a TV or bed.

  • Kitchen

    Under-cabinet profiles light the counter, not your back.

Price per metre

It depends on the channel size, the strip and the driver. Channels from ₹[ ] per metre.

Waterproof options for outdoor use

  • A house and garden at dusk, lit along the paths and walls

    Use the inground channel with an IP65 strip for paths, steps and planters. IP44 strips suit bathrooms and covered areas.

A profile channel hung from the ceiling on wires, used over desks, islands and long tables.

Good to know before you buy

  • Decide recessed or surface before the POP work

    Recessed profiles sit inside a groove in the false ceiling or wall. Make the groove while the POP or gypsum goes up, sized for the channel, such as 50mm for the ML-P313. Surface profiles can be fixed later.

  • Match the strip to the channel

    The strip must fit inside the channel's inner width. A 240-LED strip gives a smoother line than a 120-LED strip, especially in shallow channels where the diffuser sits close to the LEDs.

  • Where the driver goes

    Every run needs a driver, and it must stay reachable for service. Plan an access point in the false ceiling or a cabinet. Long runs may need power fed from both ends.

  • Corners and joints

    Corner profiles and clean mitred joints make a ceiling line look continuous. Plan the corners on your drawing so the channel lengths are cut right the first time.

Bring your ceiling drawing. We'll match the profile to it.
