Integrated light for hanging rails, vertical panels and shoe or bag shelves. Match sensing, cable routes and light colour to each compartment.

Supply scope

Use a compartment schedule to distinguish hanging rods, vertical light lines and illuminated shelves. Door movement, stored clothing and internal fittings affect both sensor coverage and cable clearance. Record the switching zones before repeating the kit across a range.

DESIGN DECISIONS

One coordinated specification, several different lighting details.

A wardrobe & walk-in closet systems brief should distinguish the visible effect from the assembly needed to achieve it. Start with the furniture sections and the way the space is used. Each detail below addresses its own installation, control and maintenance decisions; it should not inherit a specification simply because it sits in the same room.

DecisionRequired inputReview with the sample
Illuminated Closet Hanging RodsSpecify rail lengths, support positions and the mechanical load basis. Show the panel cable exit and the fittings that remain removable for service.Review the rail with representative garments and the agreed support arrangement. Check source visibility, diffuser retention and lead relief, then retain the approved mechanical and optical details.
PIR Motion & Door Touch Sensor KitsIdentify door types, compartments and approach paths. Define whether one door controls its own compartment or all lights, and mark potential sensor obstructions.Test approach, occupancy and door movement on a representative wardrobe. Check the usable light period and switch-off behaviour, then keep the validated sensor position with the drawing.
Tunable White CCT ShelvingList the displayed materials, required white-light range and control positions. Separate any R9 requirement from general CRI and CCT values in the brief.Compare garments and finishes at the intended settings and dimming levels. Request the relevant model and CCT colour-rendering data and retain the approved control settings.

Specify the interfaces,
not only the light source.

Use these selection questions in the assembly brief. Confirm availability, compatibility and performance for the proposed configuration.

LED Closet Hanging Rod with Diffuser

Confirm rail support, load requirement, diffuser retention and cable exit.

Custom Cut Closet LED Rod Assembly

Specify each finished length, end treatment and section label.

Hidden Cable Route Wardrobe Profile

Show how the lead passes through the panel and remains accessible.

PIR Motion Sensor LED Closet Light Bar

Confirm the detection zone, timeout and behaviour through the installed diffuser or sensor opening.

Door Touch Sensor Wardrobe Light Kit

Record actuator positions and the logic for multiple doors.

Surface Mounted Ultra Slim Wardrobe Channel

Check fixing access and visibility at the panel edge.

Recessed Vertical LED Channel for Joinery

Coordinate the groove with panel thickness, hardware and corner clearances.

Pre-Wired Closet Lighting Harness

Identify connector pairs, lead lengths, labels and the routing sequence.

Dual CCT Tunable White Closet Strip Light

Confirm channel allocation and the useful adjustment range on the actual controller.

High R9 Color Rendering Wardrobe Tape Light

Specify the required R9 and request the matching spectral report; CRI alone is not an R9 value.

Light sources &
assembly scope.

Compare the source with the fixture dimensions and intended light effect. A complete supply schedule also identifies the profile, controls, connectors and the work included in the assembly.

Turn the detail
into an orderable brief.

State the quantity basis and open decisions. A labelled assembly schedule keeps design, purchasing and installation working from the same reference.

  • Furniture sections and a dated drawing revision
  • Named sub-applications, quantities and installation sequence
  • Selected source, profile, diffuser and control interfaces
  • Harness lengths, service points and packing by module

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Wardrobe & Walk-In Closet Systems FAQ

Practical answers for the furniture drawing, sample review and purchasing brief.

Ask a project question →
Can a lighted hanging rod carry the same load as a normal rod?

Do not infer the mechanical rating from the light output or diameter. Confirm the rod, supports, span and fastening arrangement separately from the electrical specification. Test the proposed furniture assembly against the agreed mechanical requirements.

When is a door sensor preferable to a PIR sensor?

A door sensor can follow a defined door-open state. PIR operation depends on detection position and movement, and may time out while someone remains still. Choose against the intended use and demonstrate the selected behaviour in the actual cabinet layout.

What does tunable white add to a wardrobe project?

It allows the white appearance to be adjusted within the selected system’s range. Confirm the strip channels, controller and user settings together. Review fabrics at the intended settings; colour temperature alone does not establish faithful colour rendering.

How can wiring stay accessible in a finished wardrobe?

Plan vertical routes, shelf feed exits and removable access points on the joinery drawings. Keep joints out of load-bearing rod supports and door hardware. Identify which modules can be removed without dismantling adjacent panels.
