        "text": "Light rail molding, also called under-cabinet trim, is installed along the lower bottom edge of upper kitchen cabinets to conceal task lighting strips and wiring. A key decision factor is the fixture type: low-profile tape LEDs require only a minimal one-inch molding, while bulkier plug-in puck lights or transformers need deeper two- to three-inch profiles. In addition to hiding wiring, light rails direct fixture glare downward onto the countertop rather than outward into the room, while adding a balanced, finished architectural look to the lower cabinetry perimeter.",
