Begin by accurately measuring the length of each stair tread where the LED lighting will be installed. Using a miter saw or miter shears, cut the aluminum LED channels to the required lengths, ensuring clean, precise cuts. If the channels need to wrap around corners or join, miter the ends at 45-degree angles for a seamless appearance. Prepare any necessary mounting clips or brackets, potentially bending them with pliers if customization is needed.
