Are decoration and effects totally your bag? Then you definitely need LED strips for your home! LED strips are plastic strips with small diodes that shine brightly and can change in colour. A major benefit of LED strip lights is that they are flexible and can adapt easily to fit around different objects, whether round or square.
LED strips can be used anywhere in the house and garden. Their primary function is to create a pleasant atmosphere, however they can be used functionally too - for example, in the kitchen as an alternative to under-cabinet lights.
An overview of usages:
atmospheric back lighting for TV screens
indirect lighting for furniture
on balcony and terrace railings
on landings in the home and garden
in the commercial sector for neon signs, e.g. to illuminate large letters
on laptops or in the car – there are even models with a USB port

Generally, LED strips have an adhesive strip on the rear. This can be easily glued onto all types of smooth, clean and dry surfaces. Smooth surfaces made of glass are most suitable, but tiles and metal work well too. The LED strip is powered via a power adaptor - Simply plug the adaptor into the nearest power point and be amazed by what the light has to offer!
Most LED strips are between 1 to 5 metres long. You can find the exact length in centimetres by simply looking in the product details in our shop. 5 metres is not long enough? Then choose a model that is expandable. Our specialist advisers will be happy to help you. Their contact details can be found below.
For the craft fans among you, yes. However, remember scissors can only be used on the strips where expressly designated. This is stated on the packaging as well as in the product texts in our shop.
Tip: If LED strips can be shortened, small scissor symbols can be seen on the strip to indicate where to cut.
