Under Cabinet Lighting
Counter-Level Light for Cooking and Ambiance
Under-cabinet lighting is one of the most practical and impactful lighting upgrades in a kitchen. It illuminates your countertops directly — eliminating the shadow that overhead lights cast when you stand at the counter — while also providing beautiful ambient light when the overhead lights are off. Charm City Electric installs hardwired under-cabinet lighting that's clean, professional, and perfectly integrated into your kitchen.

Hardwired vs. Plug-In
Plug-in under-cabinet lights are a quick solution, but they leave cords visible and outlets blocked. Hardwired under-cabinet lighting has no visible cords, is controlled by a wall switch (often a dedicated switch or dimmer), and presents a finished, integrated appearance. It's a small additional investment that makes a significant difference in the end result.
LED Strips vs. Puck Lights
LED strip lights provide continuous, even illumination across the full length of the cabinet — the ideal choice for most kitchens. LED puck lights create pools of light with slightly dimmer areas between them, but they work well when only specific zones need illumination. We discuss your preference and the layout of your kitchen to recommend the right option.
Color Temperature Selection
Color temperature dramatically affects the look of under-cabinet lighting. Warm white (2700K–3000K) blends with the warm tones of wood cabinets and creates a welcoming, residential feel. Cool white (3500K–4000K) renders food colors more accurately and is often preferred in contemporary kitchens. We help you select the right color temperature for your kitchen's style.
