The Domus NOVA-17 Recessed Mounting Profile is a recessed aluminiumLED profile 23mm wide, 8mm high, with a flat opal PMMAdiffuser, in three finishes.

Its published length is 2.5 mm. It is 2.5 METRES.

• A 2.5mm profile would be shorter than it is wide. The figure ismetres entered as millimetres a thousand-fold error.
• We measured how far it goes: SIX Domus products publish a length under 10mm. Five are profiles at 2.5mm (this one, the NOVA-17 surface, the NOVA-24recessed and surface, and the BLOC20 surface) and one is a suspension kit at2mm.
• The practical consequence is quiet but real: sort or filter this catalogue by length andthese six sit at the very bottom, below every fitting measured in genuine millimetres. A buyer filtering for profiles over 2m would never see them.
• The true figure is 2.5m, and it is cut to any length up to that.

This listing has the datasheet the detailed listings lack

• NOVA-17 is sold nine times across two product categories. Seven listingscarry order codes, diffuser choices and length variants but NO datasheet. This one andits surface twin carry the datasheet and little else.
• So the dimensions on this page 23mm wide, 8mm high are theauthoritative ones, and the order codes and diffuser options come from the otherlistings. This page carries both.
• 23mm is across the FLANGE. The strip channel is 17 7mm, and the groove you rout is the body plus tolerance not the flangewidth. Confirm the exact figure with us before the joinery is cut.

It does not light up on its own

No strip, no driver. Designed for the Domus LED strip range, with thediffuser included. Tell us the run and we will quote all three together.

The specification

Where it works

• Under-bench, wardrobe and pelmet detail.
• Recessed joinery and plasterboard where the flange hides the groove edge.
• Runs up to 2.5m in one piece.
• Not routed until the groove width is confirmed.
• Not without a strip and driver.

Specifying it

Recessed LED mounting profile. 23mm across the flange, 8mm high, 17 7mm stripchannel. Flat opal PMMA diffuser. Aluminium, black or white. Cut to length up to 2.5m. ITS PUBLISHED LENGTH IS “2.5mm” metres entered as millimetres, a thousand-fold error. SIX Domusproducts carry the same fault: five profiles at “2.5mm” and a suspension kit at “2mm”. Sort thiscatalogue by length and all six sit below every fitting measured in genuine millimetres. THIS LISTINGCARRIES THE DATASHEET the seven detailed NOVA-17 listings lack so its dimensions are the authoritativeones.

Questions

The length says 2.5mm is that right?

No. A 2.5mm profile would be shorter than it is wide. The figure is metres entered as millimetres, a thousand-fold error, and the true length is 2.5m cut to any length up to that.

How widespread is that error?

We measured it: six Domus products publish a length under 10mm. Five are profiles at “2.5mm” this one, the NOVA-17 surface, the NOVA-24 recessed and surface, and the BLOC20 surface and one is a suspension kit at “2mm”. The consequence is quiet but real: sort or filter the catalogue by length and all six sit at the very bottom, below every fitting measured in genuine millimetres. A buyer filtering for profiles over 2m would never see them.

Why does this listing have a datasheet when the others do not?

Because NOVA-17 is sold nine times across two product categories, and the split is unfortunate. Seven listings carry order codes, diffuser choices and length variants but no datasheet; this one and its surface twin carry the datasheet and little else. So the dimensions here are the authoritative ones and the order codes come from the other listings this page carries both.

Is 23mm the width I rout to?

No 23mm is across the flange, the lip that sits on the surface. The strip channel is 17 x 7mm, and the groove you rout is the body plus a working tolerance rather than the flange width. Confirm the exact figure with us before the joinery is cut; this is the one dimension that cannot be corrected afterwards.

What is the flange for?

It covers the edge of your groove, so a cut that is a millimetre rough disappears under it. That is genuinely useful on site, and it is the main practical advantage of a recessed profile over a surface one beyond the flush finish.

Does it include a strip or driver?

Neither. It is supplied as the profile with a flat opal PMMA diffuser. The strip and the driver are separate purchases, and the driver needs somewhere accessible to live, since it is the part that fails first. Tell us the run and we will quote all three together.

What finishes are available?

Aluminium (22048), black (22092) and white (22093). Match the substrate rather than the room a white profile in a white ceiling disappears, and under a bench the profile is seen from below at close range where a mismatch shows.
