Lights in my wardrobe!

BWZN93

Ive been looking and looking, and cant find a single suitable light for the interior of my wardrobe (which is one of those IKEA Pax jobbie's that you choose the bits for your own customised 'storage solution'). Ironically, Ikea dont sell one that will work in my wardrobe. :rolleyes:

My wardrobe has a high shelf with rail underneath, which is quite high so ill need something that automatically turns itself on when the doors are open, fridge style. Any idea's gratefully welcomed!

A pretty basic electrical job for one of your DIY mates. Get a button switch for the door and wire it into a low voltage light circuit.

try ikea again. they do sell them. doesn't matter how you've configured the inside of your pax wardrobe, the light fits anywhere - over or under shelf, right at top or at bottom, and door pushes the switch off. think they come with a fitted plug too, so they just need 2 screws and a hole at back of wardrobe for cable to come out.

when you do find them, do remember to buy bulbs, as they - of course - don't have any in the packet.


edit - you weren't trying to look with the wardrobes were you ....that would be far too simple.

they hide them in the lighting dept with cabinet lighting

they are called INLOPP

hope this helps
