LUMINES CANTO perforated LED profile for tiles, black lacquered, 1 m

LUMINES CANTO 10-1545-10 is a black lacquered LED profile supplied in a 1 m length for external corners finished with ceramic tiles. Its mounting wings are perforated. This is not the unperforated CANTO version intended for plasterboard construction, so the installation variant matters as much as the family name.

Plan the profile with the tiled finish

The triangular openings in the mounting wings allow adhesive to spread through the fixing area beneath the tiles. The profile belongs in the tiling plan rather than being a surface trim attached to an already finished corner. Decide where the light channel and supply cables will run before the tiles are laid.

This item measures 1000 mm in length. Compare that measurement with the particular edge you intend to illuminate. Other lengths and mounting versions share the CANTO name; article code 10-1545-10 identifies the one-metre, black lacquered, perforated version offered here. Checking the code avoids choosing a similarly named profile with a different intended installation.

Match the strip and system components

The current manufacturer datasheet allows an LED strip up to 12 mm wide. Compatible components include BASIC covers and CANTO end caps with a cable opening. Select the cover by its stated system compatibility, not simply because another profile or cover looks similar.

The profile is a structural part of a lighting assembly. Colour temperature, power consumption and light output depend on the chosen LED strip, not on the black profile body. The manufacturer places the power supply outside the profile. Its location and cable route therefore need to be included in the design before the corner is tiled.

A line of accent light along an edge

CANTO is intended for decorative, directional lighting. It can form a linear accent at a suitable tiled corner in a kitchen, entrance hall or corridor when the installation conditions suit the selected components. The visible black finish and straight line complement restrained contemporary interiors. The profile alone does not establish room brightness or replace the selection of other lighting.
