Lighting Mounting Kits

Mounting kits and profiles fix lights and LED tape in place and give a finished look. Most of this page is LYYT LED tape profiles, with their clips and corner connectors, plus LYYT rope light clips and gutter hooks for decorative lights. QTX mounting hooks clamp lighting fixtures to a pole. Knightsbridge brackets surface-mount its high bay and low bay fittings. Match a profile to your tape width and a clamp to the pole diameter.

Choosing Lighting Mounting Kits

Pick a profile by where the tape goes, on a surface, recessed, in a corner or plastered in, then add the clips and corner pieces it needs.

Surface LED tape profiles

The 156.802UK shallow section and 156.801UK deep section suit furniture and architectural details, and the 156.833UK D section gives a surface-mount half-tube effect for 180° light dispersal. For corners, the 156.805UK is a 45° angle profile, and the 156.828UK 2 Way Bar carries one or two tapes for up and down lighting in a paintable extrusion.

Recessed, plaster-in and waterproof

For a flush line of light, the 156.954UK plaster-in profile takes one LED tape of 8-12.5mm and has a 3mm lip to bed into plaster, while the 156.945UK plasters into an internal corner. The 156.921UK T insert sets into walls or ceilings with spring clips. Where moisture is a risk, the 156.842UK waterproof profile has a knock-in diffuser that forms a seal and can be inset into floors.

Curves, corners and clips

The 156.843UK is bendable to a radius as small as 50mm and comes with end caps and mounting clips. Corner connectors such as the 156.960UK join Short Crown or 90 Degree Arc profiles, and spare clip packs of 10 include the 156.881UK for deep and shallow sections.

Frequently asked questions

What is a light fitting bracket?

A light fitting bracket is a metal plate or bracket that holds a light fitting securely to a ceiling, wall or beam. The fixing, rather than the cable, then carries its weight. Some fittings need a bracket made for that model, so check compatibility before fitting. The range here includes surface mount brackets, panel mounting kits, LED tape profiles and lighting hooks.
