Anyone have experience or recommendations with lighting shelves for a bookcase style built in?
I know LED lighting has opened up design space considerably, but there are so many options and considerations. Overall design is three vertical units, with 18" depth cabinets (doors) lower units and 12" depth open-shelving upper units. Many other aspects are TBD.
1. What type of LED should I be considering? This is primarily display style shelving, with some book shelves. Anyone have good experience with rope lighting?
2. Want at least one fixed shelf because there will be a shelf ladder. Other shelves are to be movable. Are there lighting options for movable shelves?
3. Any suggestions design guidelines for the overall unit. This is about 11'8" wide, 9' ceilings. Units will be wall to wall overall, with 3 units.
Haven't searched here or elsewhere yet on these questions - just wanted to start with the true font of info that NCWW is.
Thanks
