How to Choose the Right LED Skirting Board for Your Project?

A Practical Guide for Architects, Contractors & Distributors

As integrated lighting becomes a key feature in modern interiors, LED skirting boards are now widely used in hotels, offices, showrooms, and luxury residences — offering both design enhancement and functional value.

But how do you choose the right model for your project? For professionals like architects, contractors, and distributors, this guide will help you make smart, efficient, and informed decisions.

Why Choose LED Skirting Profiles?

LED skirting integrates soft strip lighting into sleek aluminum, stainless steel, or PVC baseboards. The result? A floating wall effect that adds depth, safety, and sophistication to any space.

Advantages:

✅ Hides floor gaps while adding soft ambient lighting

✅ Ideal for homes, hotels, corridors & retail environments

✅ Works with smart systems: dimmers, sensors, automation

✅ Offers durable finishes: anodized, brushed, matte

✅ Enhances safety for nighttime navigation

✅ Saves energy, protects walls, and elevates overall design

So how do you choose the right LED skirting boards for your project?

1. Determine the Ideal Skirting Height

LED skirting boards come in various heights to suit different interior styles and functional needs:

• 40–50mm (Low Profile)
  ▸ Ideal for residential use — bedrooms, hallways, under-furniture spaces
  ▸ Lightweight, discreet lighting for minimal design
• 60–70mm (Standard Profile)
  ▸ Most versatile — perfect for hotels, offices, commercial corridors
  ▸ Balances floor gap coverage and visible lighting
• 80–100mm+ (High Profile)
  ▸ Best for showrooms, staircases, and large public spaces
  ▸ Allows brighter LED output or dual-strip installation
  ▸ Enhances lighting visibility and safety in high-traffic areas

2. Select the Right Channel Width for Your LED Strip

All LED skirting profiles include an integrated LED trough with hidden wiring and frosted diffuser.

• 8–12mm LED strips → Standard lighting applications
• 15–18mm LED strips → For dual-row or high-output lighting setups
• Frosted diffuser → Ensures soft, even, glare-free light

3. Match the Right Material to the Project

LED skirting boards are more than decorative — they provide wall protection, light diffusion, and structural support. HERO offers three key material options:
