What are plaster-in drywall LED channels?
Plaster-in drywall LED strip channels are mud-in or plaster-in aluminum channels used to house LED strip lighting. The purpose of plaster-in LED channel is to provide:
- a structure to protect, accommodate and hide the LED ribbon
- a trimless LED channel of light mounted within the wall or ceiling
- cooling for the LED strip
Plaster-in LED aluminum channel usually has either perforated or ridged "wings" for the plaster to bind onto, as with any standard drywall structural channel.
Plaster-in trimless LED aluminum channel systems are usually sold per component and consist of a base aluminum profile, a diffuser, end caps, profile joiners, LED light strip and LED driver. Contractors can cut plaster-in LED strip lights to size in the field, or we will cut to length when required. (See our blog on tips for cutting led channels.)
Pros & Cons of plaster-in LED drywall channel lights
- Plaster-in LED channel with LED lighting is usually suited for indoor applications where plaster board surfaces are most common.
- Most LED flexible strip are compatible with our LED drywall profiles, but bear in mind the width of the LED pcb to make sure it will physically fit into the channel.
- Some drywall LED channels are deeper than standard 1/2" drywall sheeting, so you may need to notch any structural elements behind them. Pay attention to the overall dimensions of the plaster-in LED profile.
- Long linear LED drywall installations require the LED channels to be over 96 inches in length which affects shipping costs. Bear in mind the freight implications in such instances. This can be overcome by using shorted lengths of profile in conjunction with linear connectors and long lengths of diffuser which can be shipped rolled up – this gives a joint-free final result.
How to install plaster-in trimless LED aluminum channel
Step-by-step guides or drawings are usually available for each plaster-in LED channel, but these are the basic steps for setting up your installation:
- Decide what width of light you want to be visible from your trimless LED channel.
- Decide what color LED tape light your want.
- Pick a drywall LED strip channel that satisfies the width you want and is compatible with the width and power of the LED strip you want to use. So, for example, confirm that the LED drywall channel will be deep enough to diffuse the leds that you have chosen, and that it will be able to accommodate the heat output of the led strip that you have chosen.
- Work out the total wattage of your installation as per the cut sheet of the LED strip.
- Choose the correct rating and features for your LED drivers based on your installation requirements taking into account for example whether you require dimming, etc. More on this subject can be found on our blog about choosing the right LED driver.
