- Pick square or round by the job - square gives a contained beam with a defined edge and suits under cabinet task light. Round gives a soft wash and suits coves.
- Mount at the front edge under a cabinet - not the back, where light bounces off the backsplash into your eyes.
- Avoid square covers in a cove - the defined beam can leave a faint line on the ceiling where the light stops, which is what a cove is trying to avoid.
- Cut corners at 45 degrees - so two lengths meet cleanly. A butt joint shows once the light is on.
- Check the internal width against your tape - most tape is 8mm or 10mm.
- Order end caps and clips at the same time.
A square cover instead of a round one
Same 45 degree corner body, different diffuser. The round cover on the standard corner profile throws a soft wash that spreads wide. A square cover sits flat, so the light leaves in a more contained beam with a defined edge.
Which one you want depends on whether the light should blend into the surface or read as a line.

Under a cabinet, square usually wins
A contained beam puts more light on the worktop and less on the backsplash, which is where a round cover tends to bounce it back into your eyes. If the run is under a cabinet and the job is task light, take the square cover.
In a cove, round usually wins
Cove lighting is meant to be a wash with no visible edge. A square cover's defined beam can leave a faint line on the ceiling where the light stops, which is the one thing a cove is trying to avoid.
Fitting it
Mount at the front edge under a cabinet, not the back. Cut corners at 45 degrees so two lengths meet cleanly — a butt joint in a corner profile shows once the light is on. Check the internal width against your tape, and order end caps and clips at the same time.
