The RAIL-LITE trimless channel system is engineered to integrate seamlessly into architectural ceilings, offering a clean, unobtrusive lighting solution that conceals the light sources and elevates the interior aesthetic. Designed specifically for retail and commercial environments, this versatile system allows precise beam control and superior color rendering to ensure merchandise and architectural features appear vibrant and true to life. The system supports uninterrupted linear runs with L, T, and X connector options, enabling it to adapt to a wide variety of spatial layouts and lighting needs.
Each section of RAIL-LITE connects mechanically, maintaining a consistent visual language across the installation. The fixture’s adjustable spot modules can slide laterally up to 2 feet (610 mm) from their center point, providing flexibility to reposition lights as visual merchandising or layout needs evolve. Additionally, the beam can be tilted in 5° increments up to 45°, with a full 360° rotation range, allowing for highly focused and accurate illumination of targeted areas. Reflectors are available in narrow, medium, and wide beam angles with a vacuum-plated, specular finish and can be swapped on-site thanks to the Twist’N’Lock mechanism.
The trimless version is designed for integration into drywall ceilings ranging from 1/2" to 3/4" (12 mm–19 mm) thick and includes a raw aluminum flange for a minimal, refined edge. Housing is composed of steel and aluminum, finished in black both internally and externally to maintain a cohesive appearance. High-output LEDs are easily replaceable from below and are paired with high-performance extruded aluminum heat sinks to ensure thermal efficiency and long-term reliability.
Each fixture includes an integral constant current driver for 120-277V (EU-240V) operation, which is serviceable from below for easy maintenance. PoE (Power over Ethernet) connectivity is also supported, enabling integration into digital lighting control systems and smart building networks. RAIL-LITE achieves a high CRI of 90 to ensure accurate color representation and clarity, a vital feature for retail and showroom applications. Sensors may also be added to customize control capabilities; consult the factory for compatibility options.
RAIL-LITE is rated for damp locations and designed to deliver high performance with long-term reliability. Lumen output and efficacy are based on 3000K, minimum 80 CRI LED configurations, with a reported L70 lifetime exceeding 60,000 hours at 25°C (77°F). This makes RAIL-LITE not only a visually discreet and flexible lighting solution, but also a durable and energy-efficient one for modern retail and commercial interiors.
